This post has mixed emotions.
The sad: My youngest daughter has decided that she no longer wants to take dance classes. Her heart isn't in it. I made her go for a full month before making a final decision. This would have been her fifth year of dance. I guess four was plenty for her. I'm going to miss seeing her smiling face at the recital this year. Of course, if I made her go for the next 8 months she probably wouldn't be smiling at the recital.
The glad: We are getting a refund for prepaid dance tuition! In the amount of $323. I pay in full to save the recital fee which is about 10% of the years tuition. It is the studios policy not to offer refunds for prepaid tuition. However, since we are still clients (my older daughter takes tumbling), we have been granted a refund of our credit balance. Whatever they want to call it, I'm getting a refund!! It should be in the mail this week.
And I can sell her jazz shoes and return a pair of yoga pants. Yipee!
A Sad Refund

My daughter took a hiatus from dance over the summer. She ended up coming back with a vengence - not only competing solo at the Oireachtas, but team dancing with her sister for ceili. I hadn't planned for THOSE extra expenses in the budget.
I bet that your girl will find something else she'd like to do, and good job on the refund!

She's doing Kumon math, and it seems to have really helped, so that about 30 minutes a day. But it's put a damper on other things.
