First ballet class

I don't know how to put my head around this but my daughter thinks she's a princess in training.
She's a totally girly girl. She loves pink and purple. She loves wearing dresses. She wants to wear my lipstick. I hear her singing to herself "some day my prince will come...." Yikes! That just sounds so wrong, doesn't it?
So evidently, she learned from her friends that some of the girls in her class are taking dance lessons. So she came home one day and insisted that we sign her up for a dance class. She told us this when she was only 2 years old. Astounded, I talked to my neighbor (who also has a daughter) about this and she actually recommended a dance class that her daughter took at the Y. So today was Sisi's first dance class. I had to stay home with Aidan so Pat and Terran went with her and apparently, she was really into it.
I really want my kids to learn martial arts so I am trying to convince her to take Tae Kwan Do. Of course, she said no. I told her that princesses need to learn to fight and to protect. She's not convinced. Hopefully, I can get her on board with it this winter.

She loves to dress up. Here she is in her favorite purple dress with wand and head-piece that she got from her aunt for her birthday.


Getting ready for her first ballet class. I have nothing to do with that tiara on her head; she added it herself. A necessary piece for a princess, of course.
