Yesterday was the day Stella Ross has been waiting on for a LONG time - her first day of ballet and tap!! She was so excited that she even took her nap in her dance clothes. I really did not know what to expect when we arrived at her class - would she be scared, would she go in the room without me, would she dance??? She FAR exceeded all of my expectations! Not only did she walk right into that dance class all by herself but she acted completely comfortable with it all. (maybe a little TOO comfortable!!) The best part was being able to watch the entire class on the television in the lobby. It was the best 45 minutes of entertainment I have EVER seen.
The teacher started off the class by placing each little girl on a colored circle. This was the first mistake. Stella Ross had a ball playing with the circles. Any time someone would move off their circle she would pick it up and throw it like a frisbee. The other big obstacle were the wall-to-wall mirrors in the room. Stella Ross could not keep her eyes off of herself (she is pretty cute!!) and would get so caught up that she would even get out of line and start galloping around the room to get a better look! (especially in her tap shoes. She LOVES, LOVES, LOVES her tap shoes) I feel VERY confident that she didn't hear a word the teacher said to her, but she did get familiar with her surroundings. She has danced across every square inch of her classroom!!
I can hardly wait to see what she is going to do at her next class. It is sure to be just as entertaining. Just wait until her recital!!
