Seeing how Emmy has enjoyed gymnastics so much, I decided to go ahead and sign her up for ballet when a spot was offered to us. She started today despite her telling me all morning, "I do not want to do ballet!" I told her that my policy is that you have to try it first before saying you don't like it, just like with vegetables! So off I drove her to ballet hearing all the way, "I don't like ballet!" Ten minutes into the class, she turned to the doorway where I was peeking in and announces, "I do like ballet, Mommy!" See, that Sam-I-Am was right, if you don't try it, you don't know if you like it! I felt a bit silly, though, when all the other three-year olds showed up in pink leotards, tights, tu-tus and ballet slippers, while my child had on stretch pants, shirt and socks! My mission this week is to track down the proper attire and since the BX is out of all appropriately sized attire, this might mean an interesting adventure into Japanese ballet stores...
