naDja and her very first dancing class
Rob and I are just SO proud of Nadja!!!! I signed her up for a dancing class *tiny tots* at one of the dancing academies close to home. The class (gymnastics, tap dancing, basic of balet, etc for toddlers) is every Saturday morning for the whole summer.
"Do you want to go to the dancing school?"
She got so excited and yelled
"Yeaaaahhhh! I want to go dancing!!!"
I was so afraid and nervous that she would got scared with the whole thing and back out.
She was so cute wearing a baby blue body suit with a white tight and her hair pony tailed with the matching baby blue hair bow. Cuuuuuteeeee.
The teacher (or instructor) came up to nadja. I told Nadja to introduce herself.
" The name is Nadja Faith"...hehhehe too funny, it made me and Rob laugh.
" Well Nadja (Nadia, she pronounced)..My name is Marie but all the kids can call me Miss Marie..are you ready ?"
"Oh ok Miss Marie..I am ready" grabbed Miss Marie's hand and walked in the class room.
But, Nadja...she just walked in the class room after saying goodbye to me and Rob...no crying, no clinging to us scared..no nothing...as if she was a big girl. I was the one being a cry baby, trying hard not to cry when I told her to have lots of fun.
Parents are not allowed in the class room because they are the main reason for the kids distraction. You know how kids got so "Oh, I want my mommy to hold my hand while I am dancing" type of thing.
So me and Rob were just standing behind this big glass window...and trying to peek how Nadja was doing in the class. There were only one other little girl in the class and she is 5 year old. I had a talk with her mom. We both agreed that it is better to have less kids in the class so that the kids can get full attention from Miss Marie. You get private lesson class but paying less.
Nadja was doing so good , she was doing everything that the teacher told her to * although sometimes her dancing moves were kinda dorkey hehehhe..hey, give her a break she is only 2!!! *. She was excellent doing stretching, man, her body is like a pretzel!
We couldnt help laughing and crying at the same time *hiks* watching her from the window realizing how big our lil Nadja is now.
When the clas is over she came to us with the biggest smile and said
"Can I do it again, please? I wanna do it again daddy!"
We had a hard time telling her that the next class was for the bigger kids..that she can always come back next Saturday...
We stopped by Mc Donalds to get her a happy meal..she was happy and telling us stories about her new "thing" all the way home.
Today was a cute day...thats all I can say.
ps : my 'girls nite out' with Gina was really fun..met a lot of people at sharky's. We both were kinda tired so we called it a nite a little bit after midnite.
