Ballerina Girl

Foxy performed in her second ballet recital this past weekend, right on the heels of our big family road trip. I was a little worried that she'd have some trouble -- she'd missed the last four classes leading up to the show -- but with the help of a friend who emailed us a video of the dance, she knew her stuff and was thrilled to perform. It helps that the teacher takes the stage along with kids this age!

She wasn't into taking many photos, as she much preferred to get her fanny backstage and hang out with the performers. But I did snap a few, just to document how very grown up she seems in full costume and make-up.











And the venue didn't allow videography or flash photography, not that that stopped a lot of the parents in the audience. I'm a rule-follower, though, so I was grateful for my flashless still camera.





Today she has her pre-kindergarten doctor's appointment. School starts in just eight days!
