little ballerina

thud... thud... thud... thud...

That's me hitting my head with the camera. Yesterday was her mini-recital in ballet and I forgot, I didn't have a camera with me. I have the camera, it's in my big purse, in the truck, parked about a good 10-minute walk. I could have gone back and got it but I didn't want to miss it.

It was so nice. She looks so cute. She had a big smile glued to her face. And I know, try as hard as I can, I can never fully describe it. One thing, I still can't get over her posture. Her back is straight, her shoulder pulled back, her tummy sucked in. She does look like a little ballerina. She said that when Daddy gets home, she'll do it again for him.

One of the girls started crying 10 minutes into the recital. She didn't have a parent to watch her. Poor kid. And, only 1 mom had a camera with her. And, I don't know what happened to the rest of the girls but there were only 6 of them there.
