I dedicated the dance "Sweetpea" to my baby granddaughter Cheyenne when she was just 4 months old. She is now 17 months old and has a favorite phrase When she wants something, she holds her arms up and says "...mon ...mon." She means "c'mon." Hence this is a sequal to "Sweetpea" and is dedicated to Cheyenne
If you begin the dance on count 48 (on vocals) the verses and choruses and two bridges are each 32 counts long. The song ends with three repetitions of the chorus. Dancers should learn the steps as groups (1-32 and 33-64). You do steps 1-32 (Part A) on each verse and steps 33-64 (Part B) on each chorus and bridge
