Crazy day, Part II
The day I have been waiting for. The big recital for Mollie's favorite activity - DANCE!
The very professional dance school Mollie is attending (neighborhood YMCA) opened their halloween festival with their 2 - 5 year olds putting on a performance last night. It was the least formal recital ever, which was why I was sitting on the floor two feet from Mollie trying to capture it on video. The bets were flying on whether she would run over to us the minute she saw us, actually dance, or just stand there. The latter happened in performance #1. We never saw the result from song #2 coming. Mollie was doing all of the moves (Juilliard here she comes), and then the kiddos surrounding her starting belting out the chorus, and... (if you can stand my ametour videography... trying to watch and tape at the same time)
Note the quick end to the taping... I had to go and grab her from the dance floor as this happened...
Of course, we hit the YMCA party directly following and the trauma was quicly replaced by tootsie rolls and a huge smile. "No go home mommy, no leave party!"
Later when I asked about the recital, she told me, "mama, too loud", but this morning she asked for "more dance recital". You have the love the resilience of a two year old! So proud of you big girl. You were fantastic to watch in your recital. Can't wait for years more to come!
