After months of practice, the big day finally arrive - Lauren's first ballet recital. Lauren was so excited to show off her moves and mommy was looking forward to watching her performance (daddy had to work and her brothers were in school). Bad news, her teacher broke her collar bone and could not be at class but the show had to go on. Well sorta, the substitute ballet instructor didn't know what dances the girls had been working on and they were too young to explain it all so the recital was very short and disorganized. Lauren told me afterwards that she was sad she couldn't show me some of her dances. We tried to get a private performance at home with no luck. Lauren told us she needed the music and her friends - so cute. She loved dance class, so I am sure we have many more recitals to look forward to in our future.
