Lainey competed in her first solo competition of the season this past weekend in Fort Worth. She won the Category Cup for her category (Musical Theater for 7-8 year olds) and 5th place overall for 7-8 year olds.

This year, her point level was "Diamond" as opposed to last year's "Double Diamond." She was a little disappointed; and I think this picture shows it. :( She doesn't compare herself to others at all, which I LOVE, but she definitely has expectations for herself. I could tell she was trying to process the whole experience throughout the weekend as she kept bringing it up at random times. In my opinion, disappointment is good for building character. And this was definitely a good character-building experience! :)
This is a horrible picture...but she is fifth from the left, receiving her trophy for placing 5th overall for 7-8 year olds. :)

We love you for being YOU, Lainey. We are thankful for you every single day.
