Norah was jumping for joy when her and her mother returned home from church. The service was amazing, and she definitely felt the Lord's presence in the room. Also, the pastor's really nice and she saw Westly and his family there too.
After Norah changed out of her church dress, she grabbed her dance bag and got ready to leave.
"Bye mom!"
"Bye honey! Love you!"
"I love you too! See you when I come back!" Norah ran out the front door and down the hall.
Today is Francine's first day acting as the dance captain and the girl is excited to see how she does.
She jogged to the bus stop and was filled with adrenaline from the excitement of the day. As she waited for the bus she decided to do some jumping jacks.
Which got stares from the other people around her, but she could care less about the weird looks they threw at her.
Finally, the bus came, and she hopped on and went to sit down after paying.
Francine arrived at the studio earlier than anyone because if she has any chance at becoming dance captain then she has to prove that she really wants this.
Norah skipped in the studio happy as ever.
She turned her head to see Francine pacing back and forth.
"Hi, Francine!"
"Hi, Norah." Francine greets back without throwing her a glance.
Norah frowned and walked over to her, "What's wrong?"
Francine shook her head, "Oh, you know, everything about this captaincy."
Norah nodded.
"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll great."
Francine stopped and looked at her, "How are you so sure?"
The girl shrugged and replies, "I mean, you have God with you, don't you?"
Francine sighs and nodded.
"Then everything will be okay!" Norah cheered.
Francine smiled, "Thank you Norah, but you know we're going against each other, right?" All did was smile and spun around in circles.
"YES!!! And I believe whoever becomes the dance captain, it happened for a reason and even if you or I don't become the dance captain then at least we got some practice in being a leader." She says with a lot of enthusiasm.
'Norah's excitement and reassurance made me feel better. If I become dance captain, then it was meant to be and if I don't then it wasn't meant to be. God puts the people he knows will be fit for the job.' Francine smiled brightly.

"Okay, everyone, the first we are gonna is stretch!"
Everyone listened and did their stretches.
Norah was stretching while sitting beside Westly and Zara.
"That service was awesome." Westly said.
"Yeah, I'm happy mom and I found a church to go to in short notice."
Westly eyes widened, "Oh, right, you haven't been here for that long," Norah grinned, "The pastor and people were so nice and kind. I'm happy God lead us there." She remembered her mother was worried that they wouldn't find the right church.
"Yup, everyone's like family."
Zara sat there listening to them and sighed as she continues to stretch.
