Jaime expressed her joy and pride in a heartfelt post.
She wrote, “This is my 10-year-old daughter Maeve tapping with her 72-year-old (yes amazing) grandfather (my father-in-law). Maeve asked her Gramps to enter a tap duo in her summer recital. After only 6 classes to learn and practice, this is their recital performance.”
The grandpa not only agreed to participate in this unique endeavor but also turned out to be exceptionally good at it.
Dressed in matching blue and white outfits, the duo tapped in perfect unison, showcasing their incredible chemistry.
