~Dance With Cinderella~She spins and she sways to whatever song plays without a care in the world....             
This was our first year of ballet.
The anticipation of recital day and the looks of pure bliss after their performance made the entire year of scrambling to find ballet shoes and sitting in the studio with three ancy kids an hour twice a week completely worth it. All I can think when I scroll through these pictures is Stephen Curtis Chapman's song, "Dance With Cinderella". I cried every time I heard that song for the longest time. What is it with girls and their love of all things pretty? During the rehearsal, my little four and six year old couldn't take their eyes off the big girls and their tulle covered leotards and silky toe shoes. As Avery stared wide-eyed at the ballerinas, under her breath she said, "Oh, they're so beautiful." There is something so precious and simple about this age and I'm enjoying every minute of it. They don't care if things are mismatched or over matched. They are the beholders....and whatever they happen to like is beautiful. Can that please not change?  ~Stacey | |
