Charming mom-son dance routine was the talk of the school talent show

TwitterFacebook

This mother-son duo took both the internet and the school talent show by storm.

Ginny Jenkins, a guidance counselor at Myers Park High School in Charlotte, North Carolina, enlisted her son Scott for a delightful “History of Dance” routine at the school’s talent show on Thursday.

Oh, the joy.

The same can be said of Christmas cards. Families are all too ready to show off how well put together their lives are while the rest of us just grin and die a little more inside.

One family decided to lay it flat in the open, proving we’re not all that different, because the majority of us are all “Emily.”
