Today was a special day at Molly's dance class, as parents were allowed to sit in the class and take pictures and video to their hearts' content. We clearly did not get the memo that today was the day to wear your brightest and biggest tutu.
The girls did a few tap dances, including one choreographed to Christmas music that involved a move called the "boogie woogie." I'll only say that Molly tried hard and seemed to have a lot of fun. She's very good at jumping, but her future as a dancer is yet to be determined!
One mom, however, already seemed to be mapping out her 3 year old's artistic future. As we were leaving class, I overhead the mom ask the dance teacher, in all seriousness, "Is my daughter always this skilled?" The dance teacher didn't understand what she was asking, so the mom clarified that her daughter was clearly so great at dancing that she was considering enrolling her in gymnastics too. The teacher quickly recovered from her surprise over the question and assured the mom that her daughter was indeed amazing.
I'm not sure which of the little dancers was our prima ballerina-to-be, as they all seemed pretty awkward and uncoordinated at times. I was just glad that Molly only tripped twice during the class and came home with no injuries!

CUTE! Charlotte has the same dance teacher- she's in the studio here in Baxter though. I guess I'll have to dress the kids in their fancy cute outfits for parent week this week. Shoot, they don't actually have any fancy cute dance outfits... ;)
I really liked the teacher--she was great with the kids! And poor Molly, her dance outfit (we only have one) is getting so short on her that even she is commenting on needing a new one! Thankfully she didn't ask for a blue tutu. . .
The Baxter studio is having a big clearance sale on dec. 27th, just FYI. I just go to Target, though. They always have the basic dance stuff.
I think the best part of dance class is sitting in the waiting area listening to some of the moms talk. Some of those people are cra-aaaa-zy. ;)
