Twinkle toes and The Ball Drop

I took gymnastics for 7 years as a child and have dreamed of the day I could share that with my own daughters. Last year I put Kaitlyn in a gymnastics class that for all intents and purposes did not qualify as gymnastics in way whatsoever!! I was a little leery when a friend said that her daughter went to a ballet/tap class for 3-4 year olds. I just hate giving up so much money (they we don't have right now) for Kaitee to run around in tights and stomp her feet in some tap shoes. With much thought, I decided to give it a shot.
I couldn't be happier. Kaitee started coming home and showing me things that she learned in class (parents are not allowed in during class time). She knew the first few tap steps but seemed more interested in what she was learning in ballet. I have to admit she is soooo stinking cute in her dance clothes. She is so cute when she asks me where her dance clothes, bag, or shoes are...*SNIFF* she is getting so big.
Back to the topic at hand. A few weeks ago her class had an observation night for parents, it was to view the last 20 minutes of class. It was packed! I loved every 18.75 minutes of it! Yes I was late, if you know me, this was early:P I am (trying to) posting a small video of dear sweet Kaitlyn in class. Someone help her, the poor thing CANNOT skip! I know as an early childhood educator that this is a developmental skill but my child is GIFTED!! RIGHT?? I just learned that she has yet to open that gift.

These are just a few still shots I took of her. She comes home a tells me what is going on and she makes sense. I love it!!!
