First Day of Ballet

We enrolled Megan in ballet class at a local dance school. She was a little shy at first and her teacher had to keep coming back to take her away from my side. Once she warmed up, Megan had a great time. She followed directions wonderfully and would watch the teacher and other girls and do what they did. I almost cried when the teachers got her to go up on her tippy toes. I didn't expect it in just the first class.

We discovered that her friend Sarah is in the class too. What a little cutie she is! I can't wait until next week. Originally, parents are not supposed to be in the studio with their children. But since they are so young, they let parents stay with their kids for the first few classes until they are comfortable. After that, we get to watch from the room next door on a monitor. But I am thinking I may go in that room for at least part of the next class.

All ready for class!
