Sad

The other day at dance I happened to be outside and trying to look in the windows to see Bea's ballet progress. I could see her fine. She was standing in the back of the room with her little ballet skirt in her hands, looking expectantly at the teacher, waiting. She probably stood like this for the remainder of the class. (Probably about the last 15 min. of class.) I could see the other girls as well. They were at the front of the room on their imaginary line learning a dance. I was confused at first, why was no one in back with Bea? I was so sad for her. Then it hit me. Is it possible that she's the only one who's NOT going to be in the recital in June? Then I got mad. I'm still paying for the class, why can't she learn the dance too? Put her on one of the sides, the kids are so small they're not gonna notice that she's gone come recital day. Plus they have another whole two months of practice without Bea there, so what's the problem!?
I've decided that I'll just wait till next class and see if it happens again and talk to the teacher about it first, then call in to complain if I have to. I really like this studio and they've been super nice and friendly and that's why I don't want to jump to any wrong conclusions. But that night when I saw Bea so eager and waiting all by herself... it just broke my heart.
