Hannah en pointe


I had to take this with my crappy cellphone camera because I forgot my camera.... but...today Hannah went en pointe! I have to say how proud we are of her. When we moved here a little over 2 years ago Hannah asked me if she could take  ballet. And while she was 10 she had to start at the bottom..with girls 2-3 years younger than she. She has worked hard and it's paid off.  We are so proud of you Hannah our Ballerina!

    This was my dream my whole growing up. My parents could never afford ballet, and it's something I wish one of my girls would do. Guess I have Evie, don't I?
    My favorite part of the pic? Your face in the mirror. That's exactly how I would feel!

    Pam, I started ballet when I was ten, grew up spending many afternoons in a studio, got my BFA in Ballet Performance at a university and went on to dance with a professional ballet company for a few years before starting my family. You tell that girl she can do anything! She's beautiful.
