Ali's Recital

Ali has been dancing now for a couple years. It's the cutest thing. She looks forward to it all week and so far I have managed to avoid those dance programs that require you to spend $300 on a 4 year olds recital costume that she'll wear once. So as long as she likes it, and it doesn't interfere with soccer (according to Dad) we'll keep it up. We just finished a session where she took a combo class of ballet/tap with beginning gymnastics. She loved it. And I loved that her ballet teacher kept telling me that Ali listens so well, has natural talent and just "gets it". (Okay, so at first I thought, "who's child is she talking about?") I don't think it will be long before Mia will want to join in, although right now she's still content to sit with me and watch Ali. And if I should happen to talk to another parent, Mia will remind me to "watch Ali". So here... watch Ali.

And I learned yet another lesson: videos are not like photos. They can not be rotated no matter what you do. So if you'll just lay your head on your left shoulder, I think you might find this little dance number worth the discomfort. Thanks for your understanding!!
