At Least She Has Good Posture . . .


Because, bless her heart, she still isn't graceful. Or focused.

This week was "Parent Visitation" at Morgan's dance school. Chris came as well and the parents were invited to sit in the studio while the class showed us what they had learned.


Chris and I spent the majority of the time trying to hide our hysterical laughter. Don't get me wrong, we love our daughter. We think she is one of the two most beautiful, sweet, intelligent little girls to ever enter the world.


But she isn't coordinated. And we know it. Look how confused she looks right there. Poor girl.



And she isn't focused. Notice everyone else in a nice line. Lil Bit is doing her own thing.
Not in line.
She might have a touch of her mom's ADD. Sorry about that, Morgan.

Still, she has come a long way. She can now twirl without falling over or running into a wall. (Seriously, this was a problem.) She can shuffle and step and kick and do a couple of ballet positions that I don't know (you would have to ask my mother-in-law, she is the ballerina).

And she has fun. Lots of fun!

And we are proud of her.
And we don't really care if she falls into walls when she twirls--we love that little girl like crazy!

Maybe it is an oldest child thing....Logan is my uncoordinated one. I worry about that with sports and stuff, but then I remind myself - God made him just the way he is and I love him no matter what! And if he doesn't play sports, oh well, he is alreasy kicking butt on the computer!

I just found your blog from Laura's at Prone to Wander.

This is exactly how I was in ballet! I think over time I became a little more graceful, but I was never the star of the class.

Anyway, she is precious.

Thanks everyone! it really is endearing watching her be so klutzy. She is such a sweet kid and has a good sense of humor about herself.

Katie--glad you stumbled over here! Yeah, Morgan has definitely improved over time, but I doubt gracefulness will ever be her strong point. She loves it, though, so it is a good thing to have in her life.
