you knew tutus were supposed to be worn around your neck, right?



My little baby started dance on Tuesday.  She was in a class of 6 girls and she is taking ballet, tap, and tumbling for an hour once a week.  I stayed to watch for the whole first class and I have to say that it brought me so much joy.  It was one of the most entertaining hours I have had in a long, long time.

Each child in the class had their "moments."  Sometimes they would listen and follow directions well and other times they would run off, stare off into space, or as my little ballerina liked to do, stare at themselves in the mirror.

And just a tip for any of you considering putting your child in dance class soon: I would suggest buying a leotard with the skirt attached, not as a separate piece like I did.  Because otherwise you will be standing there watching through the observation window as your daughter makes a cape out of her skirt and twirls it around her neck.  Just saying.

Oh, the creativity! to wear a tutu around her neck and spin around - wonderful divergent thinking.
