tiny dancer

I signed Ally up for tippy toe ballet class. Last Saturday was her first day. On the way there we passed by an elementary school filled with little kids playing soccer. She pointed them out so I asked her if she'd rather play soccer or go to dance class.

If you know Ally the answer is quite obvious. Run back and forth down a field chasing a ball or dance around in a pretty pink tutu? "DANCE CLASS!" she replied naturally.

With sheer enthusiasm she entered the dance studio and pranced into class. There was a teeny tiny window in the door that I was pretty much glued to the entire hour, watching Ally, absolutely fascinated. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen. The other parents were just sitting around not really interested but I couldn't pull myself (and my camera) away from the window. Even now as I just downloaded these photos, if there had been a camera on me you would have seen my whole face light up as these pictures started popping up on my computer screen.

P.S. Bear with me, the pictures aren't very good because I was shooting through a glass window, and mostly of the mirror so I could see her face since her back was to me. But they still make me smile so big when I see them.

Thank you Jesus for my sweet little girl. I don't know if it's possible to love her any more than I already do.
