"Think Princess!"

Emily started dance class with Miss Julie, and she's been on cloud nine ever since. Moms were allowed to stay and watch that first day, and I have to admit I was a little teary eyed watching her dance because she was SO happy! Since she's with me in primary every Sunday and preschool three days a week, her dance class is her only opportunity to be away from me, and it's been so good for both of us.
Miss Julie told them a story about Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella and talked about how a princess would stand. So every time Miss Julie says, "Think Princess!" the girls stand up straight with their shoulders back, dancing hands in place, and a smile on their face. I could just see Emily's confidence grow when she did it. It was really sweet.
one very happy girl

She is so cute! I'm glad she is in dance by herself. She will love feeling so grown up without her mommy there. I bet she'll LOVE it!!

Oh how sweet! That's so great that she's doing that! And for our family pictures, Kevin and I took many of them ourselves and we just had some friends take our family ones and then I touched them up in photoshop. It was just with our little point and shoot camera. :) Thanks for asking!
