Following in Her Little Sister's Footsteps


Somebody else wanted to take dance after hearing about how much fun Lila Grace is having.  At first Savannah only wanted to take dance if she could be in Lila's class.  I convinced her that there is no such class.  Thus, she started ballet all on her own and loved every minute of it.  The class is composed of 6-9 year olds and all of the studnents have been in the class since September.  I would have been sweating bullets and hating every moment of it, considering all the girls knew what to do and how to do it.  Even though Savannah is way behind in her knowledge, she tried very hard to hang with the group.  I am just thrilled that she had a beaming smile on her face when the class was over.  She felt that she did a great job and that is my number one reason for signing her up for extra curricular activities - building confidence.


Here she is warming up with the other girls.  They were instructed to spin on different levels.  (notice the tongue out look of concentration)
