Maddy took her first ballet class this summer. It was a "mommy and me" class, which meant that I participated in each of the classes with her. I'm not sure if me being there caused her to misbehave more than she would have without me, but she loved to do her own thing (instead of following the teacher's directions). In fact she would do the exact opposite of what the teacher asked her to do which led to a scolding and this:
Yes, that's Maddy with her arms crossed and pouting. She was finally able to jump over the "river," her favorite part of class.
The class ended with a curtsey and a rose stamp on her arm. We won't be returning to ballet lessons right away because Maddy has decided that she wants to take up karate instead.
