Last weekend Miss Chloe had her first dance recital. I was proud. Cried even. I can't believe that I have a daughter who is old enough to have a recital. I know...she's only 3. She's not getting married or anything, but she is getting older.
You see...I was a bunny too when I was 3...
...and now I am a mom of another 3-year old bunny. One day, Chloe will look at these photographs of herself as a bunny and wonder how time has gone by so quickly.
The theme for the recital was Alice in Wonderland and she and the little girls in her class were the white rabbits. Chloe was awesome. Seriously. I know I am biased, but I honestly didn't know how she would react. Her teacher warned us that every year there are criers and even wetters (meaning: urinating while on stage). She was a candidate for both. Thank goodness that when the lights came on and the curtains came up, she shined. She was totally in her element. When everyone came out for the finale, she freaked out. She looked really panicked and ran off of the stage crying. I was confused. She made it through the performance perfectly. Why cry now?
When I picked her up she said that she thought that they were going to dance again and she waited and waited for the music, but it never came on. She got scared because she didn't want to mess up. Okay...a little stressed aren't we???
Here are some of my favorites from the day...
