14 December 2011 Bouncy Bouncy Ballet

The thing to know about ballet this term is that Sam has not been enjoying the classes. In the car after class I ask her what she learned, what was fun, etc. and she replies, “Nothing.”

“Well, what did you do?”

“Oh, we did, ‘Bouncy Bouncy.'”

“What’s that?”

“Oh, it’s not very interesting.”

And then she would change the subject. “Look, Mom, there’s an Ohio license plate!”

Today during the end-of-term exhibition class I got a look at “Bouncy Bouncy,” as well as a photo of just how bouncy Sam can get (straight back in the center). Of course, today she loved the class and when I asked her what her favorite part was, she said, “Bouncy Bouncy.”
