Dance Class Update :-)

Well, dance class was Thursday.  It's been so busy I haven't had time to update.  I had to wake Emilynn up from nap to go to dance, never a good sign, right?  She was okay though.  I started putting her tights on and she was all smiles, the girl loves to dress up.  She was SO cute in her leotard and tights.  We took lots of pictures and she got her new Ballerina book, she loves it!  As for the actual class, we got there and changed into her shoes and she and the other little girls went in their room with no incident.  No tears, no nothing.  Emmy and the girls were all checking each other out, they are all so adorable.  There are 6 in her class, but all the others took dance this summer, so they kind of knew the ropes.   The teacher said Emmy did a lot of watching this week.  I'm betting it won't take her long to jump right in.  She did cry at the very end.  :-(  The teacher, Ms. Robin, opens the door at the end and all the girls stand in their spot and she calls each one up individually.  They take a curtsy or bow and then get a hand stamp and can go.  Well, when the door opened I guess Em thought it was over and she came running towards me.  Her teacher made her wait on her spot instead so she started crying.  Poor girl.  I felt bad.  I will know next week to kind of stay back so she doesn't see me.  We've been working on her bow since then.  Now, she bows,  puts her head on the floor, and flips over.  Like gymnastics class.  I hope Ms. Robin can sort that out!  She was smiling by the time we left the studio.  She said she had fun when I asked her.  I said, "Did you have fun at dance class Emmy?"  She said "Yes."  I said, "Even when you had to stand on the dot?" She said "No!".  Hehe....I was glad the teacher stuck to her guns though and made her follow through.  I think she needed to do that so Emmy would not walk all over her.  The teacher told me after class that one of the kids who took it over the summer cried for the entire 45 min. class, so Emmy was fine.  If Emmy cried for 45 min straight I don't know that I'd take her back!  :-)   Anyway, we'll see how this week goes.  I expect she won't cry this week because she'll know what to do, but we shall see!  Carson got to hang out with Daddy while we were gone, he helped him hang a game camera.  That boy has been trying to go in the woods for a while, I think he was on cloud 9.  If it involves woods, bugs, & dirt, he's in!  They are growing up so fast!!!!!!!
