Overheard: Recital butterflies

Olivia, as we walked back stage immediately before her performance: “Mom, what am I supposed to do when I have to throw up?”

Bec: “You mean, ‘if’ you throw up?”

Olivia: “No, WHEN.”

Bec: “I suppose you run off stage.”

Olivia: “Well, we’re not supposed to leave the stage…”

Bec: “I think they’ll probably make an exception for you.”

    Consuming a lot of buttercream wedding cake frosting prior to a dance recital can lead to a very queasy ballerina!
