Today was Abby’s first day at dance! She has been asking us for a few months now about taking ballet. I swear I had nothing to do with this! I think its the Angelina Ballerina cartoons she watches. Abby was so excited to get dressed in her leotard and ballet skirt. I couldn’t contain her excitement.

Based on the pictures you would think the day was perfect! But unfortunately during the first five minutes of class, the music came on very loud and it scared Abby. New place, new activity, new people and then the music startling her took all that excited energy and before I knew it she was a bawling mess in my lap. For the rest of class Abby sat in my lap upset and stubborn as a mule. Not sure where she gets that from, but I am sure by next week it will pass. Despite all of that, she sure looked cute in her ballet outfit. Here is to a new week!
