Ballet begins

There is a precious teenage girl at our church who volunteers to teach ballet to the little ones. She teaches them the basics and choreographs a beautiful, worshipful routine for them to perform in church. They performed back in June, and Lauren wanted so badly to get out of her seat and join them onstage. She has been counting down the days till they would start back up in the Fall so she could participate.

Today was the day. She talked about it ALL day long . . . how much longer till ballet? Is it time for ballet yet? Can we go to ballet now?

She absolutely loved it, and on the way home she said, "Okay, mommy, I know ballet now. Great!"
