Sofia is extremely shy.
She is also stronger of spirit than I ever give her credit for.
All morning long she was running around the house in her leotard and tights. Dancing to Angelina Ballerina in background and practicing her bunny hops. The moment we walked into that banquet hall, she froze. She saw all these people and she immediately clung to me. I was totally preparing myself for a complete meltdown. I kept on telling my mother that she was going to refuse to go on stage.
But what do you know? When the music started and her teacher led them to the stage, she went ahead with it. She did 90% of all moves and for the exception of one little misstep, was as graceful and elegant as any prima ballerina. I was so proud and happy for her. She totally overcame her anxieties and conquered her stage fright. What a wonderful little girl I have. Not bad for a 3 year old, right?
At home. 
Not happy.
Ok...feeling a lit bit better.
Not the greatest pic, but she's in the far right in the back.
Success!! A true ballerina always gets flowers.
