Dancing Queen....

So Wed. is ballet day...it is so adorable watching all of the little girls dance around.Ash is really picking up the moves quite well..of course you saw that in the previously posted video LOL her little inserts of ballet moves here and there. They go quickly but theyre there.The studio she goes to is getting ready for their big show in June...It is suppose to be a huge recital and I am so, so excited. Now if Ashley would stop talking in class and getting into trouble...my girl loves to talk...I can't imagine where she gets that from???

You know, I never could have imgained that so much of organized activities for children really revolves around the parents and their attitudes. I got a little taste with ballet when I put Ashley back in, in the fall. The moms in that class were extremely hard to converse with and some downright ignore you...I was lucky to have Lis there so I didnt worry so much about being politically correct (which is so blow out of portion here- it's not enough to be correct-you have to be politically correct) and making friends. After Lis and Providence leftI swear if Ashley didn't totally love it, I would have pulled her out immediately. But remembering what my dear wise friend had said about going out of your comfort zone to show your children its ok to go out of theirs, I kept going. The teacher and I decided it was time for Ash to move up to the next level class...so we did...it is unbelievable the difference! Not only is Ashley thrilled with her new classmates, I met some great parents. There was also another mom that had a daughter in Ashleys old class and you know what? She said she felt the same exact way in the other class, that the parents were not easy to get along with and very clique'y. It was like high school (the bad part) all over again. Hey, so I wasnt crazy or insecure!! lol

Anyhow...It is that time to go get my ballerina ready for her class...until then au revior!
