Piano and Ballet

Again, we returned to our classes today with Madison. Music class is such a treat for Madison, who enjoys just about all of it. Strangely, she's not that into marching around in a parade. There's something about it that she says she "doesn't like," so she chooses to not march while others parade around. Fortunately, that segment doesn't take too long. Actually, none of the segments take too long - each one is short and sweet, and designed to teach a certain aspect about rhythm or the scale, and then suddenly everyone is doing something new. The class just flows along nicely, so that no one gets bored at all - not even the parents!

Ballet class continues as well. As a reminder, our recital is coming up:

Madison's first ballet recital. She was practicing with her basket to retrieve certain items to dance with. As each of her classmates enters, she greets them with a hug - she's quite a social girl. Mommies and Daddies are encouraged to leave the classroom to avoid being a distraction, so this is one of those classes where she's on her own a lot. She does very well, and practices at home with Mommy and even Daddy sometimes. She's a sweetie!

In between classes, it's time for rest. We do some work in our workbooks, but everyone takes a little break too. We made a few quick stops to pick up some items for upcoming birthdays and work, but essentially spent the day at home to catch up on some rest. There's a big weekend coming up, and we want to get our rest now while we can!
