Mira goes to dance class

Mira had a dance class tonight. It's the first of an 8 week course. She was so excited to go and picked out her pink tutu. I need to get her ballet shoes tomorrow, which I'm sure she'll be so excited to pick out! She tried a dance class last summer, so I wanted to get her used to the classroom environment. She was the one in the class who pretty much did her own thing and didn't really listen to the instructor too well. She kept twirling in the middle of the circle and running around a bit. Fortunately, the instructor was very patient and understanding, so that was a relief. Mira's daycare friend Olivia was in the class too, and she and Mira had a ball together. Here's a photo of the two of them. Hopefully next week Mira will listen a little better. I think I'll be pleasantly surprised at how much she learns in the next 8 weeks.

I miss dance class! Angie & I were in dance for years and it was quite rewarding. She'll get a lot out of it. It's a great memory for me. She looks so cute in her dance outfit!

Chesney was 3 1/2 when she started and she never really listened to the teacher very well. she was always daydreaming during class. Her teacher was very good and just let the kids come around in there own time. she always said that if you push them to hard at that age they will never enjoy it as they get older. hope Mira has a great time.
