Little Miss Southington 2008
I finally got a photo done of Madison in her crown and banner. She won the title of Little Miss Southington May 3rd just a week after Dave passed away. Madison took center stage answering the question," How do your friends make you feel special?.. Madison answers, "My friends make me feel special, by giving me hugs after my father passed away". **gasp**!! I sat there wiping back the tears.. just thinking how someone so young can be so strong and poised. She performed her tap solo to Zip A de do dah.... and brought the house down! She had so many family members there, friends from the dance studio.. her school friends and neighbors to come see her.... And the winner is... Madison Yurgaitis! she smiled ear to ear..as if for a moment she put aside her sadness and was able to smile for Daddy!....he was there the whole time saying YOU DID IT MADISON...you did IT!!.... CONGRATULATIONS!... (thanks Robbie (next to Madison and Chase in the photos) for spending the whole day with my kids!! xoxox)

It was also a special day for Chase as well. He was performing at the American Dance Awards competition in W.Hartford that same day... Dave was going to take him and be the stage dad .... ...but instead his Dance teacher (seen in the photos) helped him that day!.. Chase did his Tap solo to Dancing Fool.. did a FABULOUS JOB... .. we waited patiently until the awards were announced.... crossing our fingers.....ADA Junior Male Dancer of the Year goes to: Chase Yurgaitis from Rob Merante's Academy of Dance!... can you just see me now... PROUD MOM !!! and for sure a KODAK MOMENT!!.... although Dave didn't get to see his son win...He knew just how good he was... he had no doubts that Chase could pull it off!!...and HE DID!!!!
