Ballerina dreams.
On Saturday my mom and I took the Princess to her first full length ballet in the big State Theater. It was a production by the Youth Ballet theater with well known stars in the lead roles. Saturday morning was a special dress -up show with a little party during the first interval. She was so absorbed in the show and told me that she wants to be a ballerina just like the lilac faerie some day. And as you all know, I tell it better in pictures:
Sharing a love for theater and knowing she can actually watch a whole show makes my Monday.

ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing memory for her...she will always cherish that day - you can tell in her eyes how much she loved it!!!
I like that tiara of hers. I would've thought it was brand new if you haven't mentioned that it is old costume tiaras.
ReplyDelete@Blackhuff - they are actually brand new, just like factory rejects.
