2 Year Old Dance Recital

Layla has been in dance all year at Decatur School of Ballet.  As a two year old, her and I went together to a Mommy & Me class. She had her recital yesterday, which they actually just call a "demonstration" since 2 year olds often don't do well on a big stage with a long performance.  It also saves us money on all the costume fees.  Instead, they offer old costumes that the kids could choose from throughout the demonstration.

Layla has improved so much over the year.  She is definitely ready for the next step and ready to go without me!  We can't wait until September when she begins Creative Movement I with Mrs. Jessica!

Daddy made sure he was in town from NY to see her:)
