I don't think I've ever walked away from anything, even a conversation, since I was in third grade. I can't even take credit for that. I think my mom made me because we had activities every night of the week and it was too much. When Kaylee decided to quit dance after 10 years I was devastated! I couldn't understand how she could turn her back on something she was so good at. We invested so much time and money into dance. I LOVED watching her! I'm so proud of Kaylee for taking the risk and saying enough is enough. She would have missed out on so many other opportunities. I admire people who are risk takers. Will I ever be brave enough to take the leap?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128668823619362663.post-25918213391351718962015-07-12T07:14:19.152-05:002015-07-12T07:14:19.152-05:00Great post, Leslie. I don't have any answers ...Great post, Leslie. I don't have any answers for you but I suspect it is different for everyone. I guess I can kind of equate it to moving in a way. There comes a time when it is apparent that it is time to go and move on. As in sports and jobs sometimes that is easy to determine and you just know in your gut. I doubt that it makes it any easier but maybe it gives you a bit of peace in the decision? I don't know. Your team will no longer be the same and I guess that is the heartbreak you will feel for a long time. I am sorry this has been so difficult.
