Today was Buggie's first day of ballet class. Jon and I thought this would be something fun for her to do that is separate from things she does with her sister, Jac. Something that is just hers. Something she can call her own. Buggie has wanted to go to "ballet school" for a while now, and Jon and I both thought it could only help her coordination. She is incredibly clumsy (like her mama). She woke up this morning so excited to go! The picture above is of her before we left the house.After we arrived, her mood quickly changed. She became quite nervous and unsure as she stared at all the other ballerinas.
After much convincing and well some bribing Buggie braved the floor. Tears were shed, her little heart raced, but she took her "brave pills" and did it! Her participation was close to none but, did step up to the plate and attempt "ballet".
She was so relieved when the class was over and seemed proud of her accomplishment. We will see how she does next week. Keep ya updated on Buggie the Ballerina.

Lindsey, that was so precious!!! How do you not just squeeze her every second?! I'm so proud of her for getting out there, looking forward to hearing how next week goes :)
ReplyDelete"Buggie The Ballerina" (SO CUTE!)reminds me of her mommy..."Linzer Binzers the Ballerina" at that age...a little fearful, a little shy... but in the end desire won out and she went on to be one of the most "talented" (AND beautiful) little ballerinas I've ever seen. Being her mother I should know!
ReplyDeleteAnnie, may you follow in your mothers toe shoes!
Yeah Annie! She did it!! So cute and yes, definitely great for the coordination :) Just think where we'd be if we hadn't done ballet!
