A few months ago my daughter had her final ballet recital of the year. She is really into drama, arts, music and the like…and has been begging me again recently to start back ballet again.
I would, (ballet is not extemely expensive where we live), except that I made her choose between a few pre-selected activities. Not wanting to overcrowd her schedule, we ended up joining a local gym instead, which allows her to have drilled and free play exercises in a class for kids her age.
Meanwhile, I thought I would put up her ballet pics…
At the end of the recital, she receives flowers from mom and dad
Gotta love the giddy smile.
Okay, I’m not certain if my eyes were open or close, but I did try to jump in this picture with NyGirl.
You know how it is- when you’re always the one TAKING the picture, there’s never any proof you were ever present! So I wanted to make sure I actually got IN the picture this time.
LOL
And one last thing to add…here’s proof that the older ones do indeed teach the younger ones.
BabyZ has been wanting to do “bayeh” (ballet) at home to be just like big sis. She got really creative one day and dug out NyGirl’s old ballet clothes (from back when she was 4) and slipped them on. Funny that she fit them, though they’re a bit loose.
She has been a ballerina ever since. At least in our living room.

I'm a geeky, homeschooling mama of 2. I really like digital technology, so I couldn't help but to teach my kids the techie stuff! I believe in integrating technology, when possible, into school lessons and preparing our kids for a digital world. More importantly, we are a Christian family and completely believe in passing our faith in Jesus Christ. Welcome to our home school- pull up a chair, grab some coffee, & welcome to our techie, Christian home :-)
