Today a star was born. Well actually she has been a star since day 1. But today made it official. Today Mary Stewart had her first ballet class.
A few weeks ago I told Aunt Rachel (who was a ballerina also) that Mary Stewart would be taking Ballet this fall. She immediately asked if she and Brian could get Mary Stewart her ballet ensemble for her birthday. I immediately said YES! On a little tangent...... Last week Mary Stewart asked me when I was going to take her to get her slippers so she could be a ballerina. I told her Aunt Rachel & Uncle B were getting them for her because Aunt Rachel was a ballerina; with the widest eyes Mary Stewart replied "Aunt Rachel is a REAL ballerina". Thought it was precious. Well on Monday I realized ballet started today and not next Wednesday. Thankfully Dee Dee helped overnight a package and walla the world was saved.
This morning we went on a walk and when we returned the packaged had arrived. As soon as she saw her shoes, tights, & leotard she immediately wanted to be full assembled. It's hard for an almost 3 year old to understand it's 9:30 am and the ensemble isn't meant until 4:30. She pranced around some time in her leotard and shoes until I bribed her somehow to take it off.
As soon as she was up from her nap, she immediately wanted to get dressed.
Virginia & Mary Stewart before class!
As soon as she stepped foot in class she immediately began dancing!
She found the barre & was a natural!
"Look momma I am a ballerina"
Libby, Allen, Virginia & Mary Stewart (Lily Kate you were missed)
I would have to say today seemed like a success.
Who is excited for a recital in May?
