Sloane had her ballet recital after a year of practicing every Friday night. She, along with the rest of her class, performed to the Jewel version of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" for a packed auditorium. All of the girls wore blue and silver sparkly tutus, along with curled hair and a face full of stage makeup. I had to drop off Sloane with the "stage mom" an hour before her performance while they practiced backstage. The stage mom told me that Sloane spotted the man who does the lights dressed in all black and cried the whole time that she saw a monster. Poor little thing. But, as soon as she got on stage she pulled it together and danced her routine like she was supposed to. She did such a good job! She was the only dancer in her group that danced the whole time. It was so funny to watch the 2 year olds dance- one turned her back to the stage and another girl just plopped herself right on the ground. Sloane says she is done with ballet and is moving on to gymnastics and soccer in the fall- but we shall see!
