Well, she did it again!
Another performance that was adorable and incredible all in one. I think she found her confidence after the last performance went so well, and this time she did even better!
She was in an older class this time {mostly 5 year olds}, but that didn't seem to bother her, and she followed along perfectly. One of the first thoughts I remember having when Bella was born and I saw that she was a girl, was- "oh my goodness, I get to take her to dance class!" I don't know why, but I instantly had this vision of a curly-haired little girl in a tutu dancing around on stage. I envisioned being able to share in those girly moments with her, and they are moments I wouldn't trade for anything.
The best part of the recital was when each girl has her moment to shine by performing a solo when her name was called. I actually felt nervous for Bella because she usually gets shy in situations like that- but she was the BEST! And of course, I am her mom...but seriously- she was amazing. I have the video to prove it :-) She pranced around stage and twirled so gracefully and with such a huge smile of accomplishment on her face. I was bursting with pride!
Then after her recital, we took her out for in ice cream celebration for a job well done, and then she got to go to a sleepover at Aunt Emily's house and have some really girly-girl time painting nails and eating popcorn :-)
Girls will be girls :-)
And believe me- I love having my little girl to enjoy it with!
Bravo Bella!!

She is so adorable in her outfit!! Way to go Bella!!
Oh my goodness, not a single picture of her pulling her skirt up and showing her underwear, I'm very impressed! Good job Bella, just precious.
Those photos are so sweet - I wish that I had some of my dance performances when I was her age. I love how technology has changed so that all these moments are preserved. I hope that you post the video for us to see the solo!
Yay Bella!! You look so grown up and utterly graceful! ;)
