My Little Ballerina


Today, Maui had her first ballet class this summer. She had taken ballet lesson summer of last year and she really loved it. We didn't enroll her during the school year because we were afraid it might conflict with her studies.

Maui is totally in love with ballet. I remember when she was only 4 months old, we were watching ballet in TV. She couldn't stand yet on her own. Her babysitter was holding her so she could stand. To our amazement, she started imitating the ballet on TV by putting 1 leg up! She was even smiling at that time. We were so surprised! I was glad I was able to capture it in photo.

Everytime we watch a ballet show, I notice her looking at the feet of the dancers, watching their every move. She even told her grandmother that she wanted to be a ballerina when she grows up.

Ballet lessons don't come cheap. The uniform itself and ballet shoes cost some money already. Mind you, we are not rich. But we'll do anything for our kids, right?
