Prima Ballerina

We have another ballerina in the making, as Little Bee started her ballet classes at long last with Big Bee's ballet teacher! Little Bee was thrilled to bits on Saturday when we dressed her up in her ballet attire, and struck several poses to announce to the world that an up-and-coming ballerina is arising. 



She had been very interested in dance since very young, and had been emulating her jie-jie whenever she watched her in open houses or school performances. This is the day that she had been waiting for, and I am so pleased to see her mirthful elation. 

Big Bee was invited by the ballet teacher to stay in the class with Little Bee, so Hubby and I were thankful for this little respite to spend a little couple time together. Big Bee also took so many beautiful photos and videos of her mei-mei in class, and we were glad we could partake in Little Bee's first ballet experience vicariously through Big Bee's photojournalism. 


Striking a pose in class

We peeped at Little Bee secretly and was tickled to see her demonstrating many ballet poses that she thought to be appropriately "ballerina-like" to her teacher in class. She is being her usual extroverted and expressive self, and we love it. 

We are delighted to see her so happy, and we wish her a wonderful dance journey ahead :)

Shirley: Thanks - she eagerly awaits every ballet class:)

viv: Yes! I also thought she looked waaaay too serious. She said real ballerinas on stage look like that, not smiling too much *faint*
