Yesterday was Kalee's first day of her Ballet, Tap, and Tumbling class. She was really excited to go, and I swear she must have asked me 800 times if it was time to leave for dance class throughout the day! She couldn't wait to get dressed and leave for "Extravadance." We had gone to the dance store on Wedndesday to purchase her ballet and tap shoes, where she informed the nice man who was helping us that she had quit preschool to do "activities" this year! Pretty funny...he was somewhat taken aback!! As soon as we got home, she unpacked her shoes and loaded them into the new dance bag that Grandma had bought her and put it by the door in preparation for Thursday afternoon! Also, she was thrilled with the little stage in the store in front of a full length mirror where she tried out her tap shoes...I think it is going to be a noisy year, and God help my hardwood floors!!!
When we arrived at the dance studio she got a little apprehensive in spite of the fact that a friend from preschool (you know, where she USED to go before she quit to do activities!!) was going to be in her class. She got a little teary and clingy when it was tme to go in, but she kissed me and went off with her teacher like a big girl! Afterwards she told us that she cried for a little while at first and she watched herself cry in the mirrors while she danced! My poor baby! But she said that she really liked it, and she even made a new friend named Katherine, so we'll see how next week goes!
