Today was the annual "Kiddie" parade. Laci and I walked with the dance classes while Ryan and the grandma's watched from the sidewalk with Noah and Mia. And the Aunties and Harper too. And Riley the Boxer.
This marks Laci's very first public performance and she did great. It's crazy how proud you become of these little humans, doing new things, becoming little people.
Thirty years ago, I was in my own ballet costume, participating in this very same parade. I wish I had a picture of that right now. I'll have to get a copy from my mom.
And now I'm exhausted. We will get up in the morning and go back downtown for the "Big" parade. The girls will eat too much candy, get dirty, and melt into crying puddles. You know, like what happened tonight after an afternoon at grammy's, a parade, a fast food dinner they barely touched, and a car show.
Memories. We're creating memories.
Oh, and Mia wants to drive.
All the time.
Of course Mia wants to drive! And I was too proud of Laci!
ReplyDeletethe blue tutu costume seems perfect for her. she really looks like dance material!
