My Little Ballerina

Grace Ann started dance class a few weeks ago and she is doing so well! She is a little young for her class but her teacher said we could give it a try and see how she does.  After 3 weeks of class, I think she is going to get to stay! :) It's so neat to see how much she has improved since the first week of class.  She is starting to follow some of the teachers directions and I have been able to actually sit back and watch a few minutes at a time instead of being right beside her!

When Owen was this age he was in daycare two days a week and then was with grandparents the other three while I taught school. Now that I stay at home, Grace Ann is with me everyday and does not do well going to other people.  We thought having her in dance was the perfect thing to get her used to taking directions from someone other than myself and allowing her to have interaction with little girls close to her age. The class is just one day a week for 35 minutes, so it's perfect! Her teacher is so patient with her!!
