This morning was our first day of Twinkle Toes, Annie's fantastically hilarious and adorable ballet and tap class. She was very serious after she got dressed in the outfit and tights and I was worried that she'd morph into mute, shy Annie for the class. Oh, not to worry . . . she thoughts she was the star of the show. Instead of hanging back and watching the other girls (the ones who had been in class last week, unlike Annie), she could barely wait her turn at the start of every activity. As soon as the instructor would demo the exercise, out pranced Annie to be first! first! The instructor, a very patient woman, kept dragging her back to wait her turn in line. We'll look for some improvement next week. In the meantime, she had the best time stretching, running on tiptoes and waving a ribbon, and learning how to make the right sounds with her tap shoes.
Later this afternoon, while Annie was napping, Jemma and I had a little twinkle toes time of our own. She was so cute and engaging: pulling herself up to stand on her tiptoes on a chair, squealing with glee, banging a toy on the floor, smiling big smiles, and putting on her own little performance. She's going to be dancing, too, before long.
