Short Lived Career

Ana started pre-ballet three weeks ago. It was such an exciting day for ME being that dance was such a big part of my childhood. She was excited too! She loved the shoes! But I really didn't know how it go over being that she isn't the most graceful child AND "flutter like a butterfly" REALLY isn't in her vocabulary! But we gave it a try! This is our angelic little girl the first day.
She thought she was too cute. We get there and the teacher is great with her...but ANA has NO interest. She doesn't stay on her dot, she CAN'T figure out how to curtsy without falling down...then staying down and ROLLING all over the floor. She would start jumping in one spot which then would turn into some sort of kick deal. We gave it three weeks and it never got fun for any of us. SO we are done! I asked if they had found anyone yet to teach soccer or a "ball sport" and LOW AND BEHOLD...they have...starting in NOVEMBER! PERFECT, we are in! I really do think she is more of a RAGE WITH A BALL kinda gal vs the graceful prima ballerina!

BUT...she did learn something! :) And today in the elevator she did her "ballet hands" and laughed...so maybe we will try again later if she wants too!
