I Hope You Dance

I hoped and hoped
Ella would dance during the Dance Step dance recital

because this was her face when she hit the stage for the very first time the night of the dress rehearsal...



but then she spotted us and perked up...she proceeded to wave the entire tap number

yet chose to dance the ballet...





Last night was the real recital and she danced her little heart out! Soo super cute to watch them...

and I felt like a real grown up, watching my daughter move with independence. She was brave and seemed to have a blast. And she was cute as anything...

even though she was a beast when I was trying to put her hair up (LOL...just keeping it real!).

  9. oh she's just too cute!
    Looks like you've captured the moment perfectly - complete with the stage fright.
    And I totally understand the dramas of trying to brush a young girls hair! It can be a nightmare!!
