Me a Stage Mom...? Never...

Okay so I am lying. Here's the scoop. Molly started ballet class last Saturday. Now, I have been preparing for this for a long time. We didn't think that she would be able to start this fall because many places wouldn't take her because she wouldn't be three when the class started. So the one place I found was Salto's where she took her gym class. They "okayed" her to start even though she was only two. Well, Oma helped us out with the class for Molly's birthday gift (thanks Mom!, it is greatly appreciated!). So last Friday, Dan was out of town on "business" and I really wanted to take Molly to her first class without the other two girls. Oma came over and spent Friday night with us. She took us out for dinner and ice cream and them just me and her had some bonding time watching Drumline. YYYEAAAH! Anyways, I was so nervous for Molly. I got her dressed in her new shoes, new tights, new leotard...all pink by the way! Then I remembered that over a year ago I bought her a Ballet warm up coat. I got that out for her from the way back of her closet. The only thing I didn't have for her was a pink skirt (which I found at Target yesterday; she'll wear it on Saturday!) Well, I wanted to get out the leg warmers I had too, but my mom said she probably didn't need them in 90 degree weather. I left the leg warmers in her drawer. Well, I took her and she did great. She was very excited and even cried when I was putting her in the car to leave class. So, we have been waiting all week to go back to dance class, less than 2 days left. I have been practicing some of the things she learned with her. I think this week I might join her class! I will post a picture on saturday of her-my sweet ballerina!
