Lilly's first dance recital is over, and thank goodness Hanna was here to help me! It was kinda special because Hanna's first recital was also a hula dance!
Lilly and Zoe are two of the three youngest kiddos in the class. They look so tiny next to the ones going on to kindergarten in the fall. Kolbi, the tallest one, is the daughter of one of John's college roomies. I love that these girls have only really know each other for a year, but are already buddies! Lilly's class was so special because we knew so many of the girls!
Every parent wants their child to get up there and perform, and Lilly did just that, with one small hitch. On the way out, she got mixed in with the front row instead of the back row, where she is supposed to stand. I was in a near panic because I could tell she knew she was not in the right place. She looked around, while dancing, and got over it. I guess she thought she needed to be seen, and the front row was the place for her!
We practiced and practiced the booty shakin part over and over. Lilly actually told me her legs weren't long enough to make her bottom wiggle!
It was such a cute dance and overall great recital. Lilly was so proud of herself and excited so many people came to watch her dance. She carried the flowers her daddy gave her with her head held high (never mind I am the one who got the flowers, leave it to her dad to steal the credit!).
The three amigos all did great and hopefully will dance together for many years to come.
I think it is safe to say they have come a long way since last summer!
