Mariah's Dance Recital





This last Saturday Mariah had her very first ever dance recital. For Christmas this past year we enrolled her in a dance class with Miss Beverly as part of a Christmas present. She has LOVED it!!!! She really wanted to do ballet, but unfortunately Miss Beverly's ballet class was already full at the time, so she was in the "creative movement" class. She has really enjoyed it and really excelled being the first time she's ever taken dance in her 9 years of life. She even had a "starring" role in her classes performance on Saturday. Of course I'm her mom and I think she did the best, but wow, she REALLY did an EXCELLENT job! You'd never have known it was her first time in dance. Even her teacher said how well she was doing. Way to go Mariah! We love you! And were very proud of you! You did awesome!

Hey, I didn't start dancing until I was 13!:) It's so good that she WANTS to take ballet...it's the foundation to ALL types of dance. Usually you have to force and DRAG the girls to ballet class (it's HARD and boring)! She IS beautiful.
