Ella Ballerina

“Look Mama, I’m ballerin-ing!”

Yesterday morning as we were getting ready for the day, I turned to see this girl lightly and steadily walking her way along the ledge of our bed, arms held out at her shoulders.

“Look Mama!”

“Oh you’re balancing!!”

“Yea!”

She ran to the other side of the bed and performed her balancing act on the opposite ledge. And then:

“Look Mama, I’m ballerin-ing!”

This time I turned to face a tiny little ballerina, holding the sweetest little ballet pose. She was even pointing her toes. She held it long enough for me to grab my phone, frozen with pride. I’m so glad she let me capture it.

What a sweet little ballerina. I can’t wait to get her in class. I think she’s going to love it.
