Tiny Dancer

Last night was Maddie's very first ballet recital. She was a butterfly in Alice in Wonderland. It was so awesome. She was gorgeous. She was so excited to be a "star" and dance onstage. No stage fright for my girl, she was all smiles and happiness.

When I dropped her off I got her into her costume backstage and gave her a hug and a kiss and said good-bye and she said "aren't you forgetting to say something to me, like Good Luck?" Of course. Duh.

She is the second butterfly from the left and as you can see, she's the prettiest one.


Never too busy for a smile for the camera, though.

Her fans suprised her with lots and lots of flowers and gifts, which she was thrilled about. She was having a hard time carrying her loot and I offered to help her and she snapped NO at me. Soorrrrry. When we got home she was still smiling. She said "I'm trying not to smile, I just can't stop."


I was really proud seeing her up on that stage performing. Lucky me I get to see it again tonight. It's good that they have two nights cause I screwed up the video. Tonight, I will try to get the video. I hope. I think.
