Dear Mom and Dad,

Yes it is true, Nana had another one of her “nana moments”.   I have to say… it’s wierd… she says that “there are times when (she) is just so sad that her daughter cannot be here” – just like there are times when she is “so sad that I am in Texas and she misses seeing me”… well today was one of those “Nana moment” days…   Nana… was all teary because she wished mommy and daddy could be with me at my first class… so she brought the beast… and decided she would GET A BAZILLION PHOTOS AND BORE EVERYONE WITH MY EVERY STEP…. but all the while knowing that mommy and daddy will love seeing me… so here we go….

I HAD MY VERY FIRST BALLET CLASS… YES IT IS TRUE… and I was sooooo happy.   Now keep in mind that I am not a fan of being out of Nana’s sight… and at first I was a little unsure… but once the music started I was part of the class and having a blast.

The little girl in yellow… well she was having fun with me… kinda like I was her personal little ballerina… you’ll notice in many of my pics…. she is a little “close”.   I didn’t mind though… I just loved being there.

I did all the things I was taught… I listened to the directions, and I had so much fun.

After we played with scarves… we then got bean bags… and danced with bean bags…

We balanced them on our heads, and shook them up to the music.

WE HAD SO MUCH FUN….

I was the smallest in the class but I kept up with all the kids.  They are all my age or a little bit older… but not much.

We all had to use our inside voices… and we all stretched and pointed our toes… our teacher is named MISS WENDY and she had a girl from her teenage class help out too.  

We really got to do a lot of things.   Thank you Mommy and Daddy for letting me dance… I love it.

We then became princesses and a prince…. and we walked accross a bridge to get to a castle tea party… watch me… I do it too!

Yep is is my new friend… she is really enjoying me in class… I like the attention….

Look Mom and Dad…

I DID IT!

I AM SO AWESOME!

After we went over the bridge, everyone had a turn, we all met in the corner for a tea party.

It was so fun…

I sat down with all the kids and drank tea with them.  (It was pretend tea but I am an expert at this so I fit right in)

We learned twirling and hopping, pointing our toes and all kinds of dance steps.

We danced to Ariel from the Little Mermaid and it was so wonderful that I did not want it to end.

Here is more of ME being awesome…

What do you think?

I think I did great… and Miss Wendy was so proud of me…

Nana was all teary… and smiling and taking a bazillion photos…

yeah… a Nana moment for sure…

Nana says she couldn’t capture my smile when I finished my walk… cause I was facing the group but it was HUGE!

At the end of the class Miss Wendy let all the other parents and Nana’s in to watch us perform to the Disney music.

I am telling you this was an awesome time here in the Mitten State.

I go every week… and I am sure Nana will take more photos for you to see me progress…

but to be honest…

I am quite the ballerina already.

I have the stuff that ballerina’s are made of..

I like pink…

I like music….

I like when everyone looks at my moves…

I like listening to Miss Wendy…  I feel soooooo BIG!

Nana has more pics for you and daddy… but for now… this is me… saying…THANK YOU SO MUCH MOMMY AND DADDY… I LOVED THIS… AND I AM HAVING A FUN TIME.   As always, I am your Little Miss Adorable, Little Miss Dancer…

GUILLIANNA!
