This was my little 4 & 5-year old tap, ballet, and jazz dance class from last year. Aren't they adorable? They really taught me a lot actually. Patience was big, but love even more. You can't help but love them when they run up to you and say, "Miss Lauren, watch this!!", and do an exhilerated leap for you. Haha! Sometimes I had have one who couldn't focus or do what they knew they were supposed to instead of do what they wanted to do. My first reaction was to gently 'get after' them, but on the other hand, the more I told her how much I knew she could do it and just talked to her as a friend, she completely turned around. She wanted to dance her best every class. I think that taught me more about how to love people. That is so much more important than any differences between you. But anyway, they were a ton of fun and look so stinking cute in their flower costumes. Good job little ballerinas!
