She spins. Again and again. Her smile captures my heart and steals my breath away! I can’t contain this joy that springs up a fresh and anew! Watching her gaze in wonder…catching the moment and soaking it up! She LOVES this…the beauty, the frills, the music! The Nutcracker Ballet. Every year we come, we watch, she dances and twirls. We talk about it for 364 days until the next time we dress up, and spend an evening pretending we are there, in the Sugarplum Forest, spinning and twirling our dreams away!
In the aisles, she can’t stop dancing! She feels apart! She tells me she just can’t stop dancing!
She waits with excitement, she is going to meet these beautiful creatures, these ballerinas who have stolen her heart!
She stands transfixed, as they sign her autograph book!
She keeps whispering to me…”they are so beautiful!”
She exclaims that she too, will be the most beautiful ballerina on stage!
It was a day of fairytale dreaming and princess smiles!
Every little girl’s dream…to dance and be beautiful and have the entire world see that beauty that you know is stored inside! To twirl and spin and feel the beauty that God displayed in all His creations!
Its so fun to be a little girl! So fun to feel the excitement of the ballet, the lights and music and know, in the very depths of your heart, that when the lights dim and the music begins, You are on that stage, dancing your dreams and dazzling a world into beauty and splendor! And so, until next year, we will count the sleeps until we can do it all over again!
