Last night when Jocelyn and I were leaving the recital rehearsal, we were a few steps behind her teacher (Miss Amy). Jocelyn was practically exploding telling me how much she loved ballet.
Jocelyn: I love ballet SO MUCH!
Miss Amy (turning her head around): I'm so glad
Jocelyn: I love it so so so SO much!
Miss Amy (smiling and choking back a giggle): yes, you mentioned that
Jocelyn: I want to do it forever!
Miss Amy: that will be great!
Me (loud whisper to Miss Amy): she loves EVERYTHING
She really does. She loves EVERYTHING. Mom and Elisabeth and Reese and I dropped her off at ballet today at 11:45 and went to kill about an hour before the show started. We went over to Burlington Coat Factory so I could get Jocelyn some new dresses. "Is there a certain kind she likes?" my mom asked. "Nope, she likes everything," I replied. So I grabbed 6 dresses, knowing she'd find a favorite but they'd all get worn.
She looked very happy on stage and did a great job. Then she was back stage until the end of the show and turns out she loved that too (some of the older girls played simon says with them, and they colored and got stickers). Then we picked her up and Grandma gave her flowers, which she loved. When we got home she got more flowers and to show everyone her costume and to give us a fashion show with her new dresses and see baby Reese - love, love, love, love.
For how much I spoil these kids, they still seem so happy about everything. I love it :)
WE ARE SPECIAL, WE ARE WEIRD, BUT WE ARE NOT ALONE
