We did a lot of prep work between the rehearsal and the recital. Ellie taught Mommy, Daddy and even Gramma the dance. We talked about it being easier the second time to be on stage. We tried to prepare her. However, the real recital was much a repeat performance from the rehearsal. Ellie made it onto the stage, but she wasn't able to move her feet or arms except to rub her eyes repeatedly. Poor little thing. We will help her get the confidence she needs, because she's good at her dance.
It was a long show and Max stayed with us watching 80% of it. He was quite entertaining and dancing in his seat. I think he wanted to be on stage with almost all the girls! Gramma was with us for the experience too and bought Ellie her first performance rose. Here are a few pictures from the morning.
