Crazy Daizy

Monkey had her first dance recital tonight, she takes ballet and tap.  I was a little worried that she would get up on the stage and just stand there, i tried to convince myself that even if she did that it would be alright, she’s only three, and it would be just as cute.  When we got to the theater and she saw the stage she was excited saying, “I want to go up there and dance.” I told her she had to wait until her teacher told her group it was time.  When the moment arrived my Monkey walked onto the stage and danced her little heart out, she was a little behind every now and then, but she is only three and has only been taking classes since January.  The fact that she knew the dance at all sort of amazed me.  When she came off the stage to change into her tap outfit all the moms kept telling her what a good job she did, she was beaming!  She walked onto the stage again and when the music started her little feet started moving and it was so adorable!  Her teacher gave all the girls a single rose and Monkey was so proud of hers, we had to bring it home, put it in water, and place it in her room.  I am so proud of her!  When we started home she said “I danced on the big stage and now I want chicken from Burger King.”  Of course, she got it!
