This was Maclyn's first year of dance, and she loved it. Sometimes. She started ballet, tap, and tumbling in October of last year and participated well until it Covid-19 forced participation to only Zoom meetings. She did have a couple of private lessons to get ready for her recital, but I don't think she got much out of them. Or maybe she did? Who knows. It didn't help that her recital was just in front of family only and there was no dress rehearsal. She had no idea what to expect. Oh well!It was funny and cute. And Keagan and Finn were beyond embarrassed for her, but isn't that how brothers are? If you watch the other little girl you will see what Maclyn is supposed to be doing. Haha!

Mac was so excited when her sweet friend and dance partner (the only other little girl in the class) walked in!

Now it is time for ballet! It went a little better...but still a hot mess!
Ms. Caitie and her two girlie girls! This sweet instructor has so much patience!
Oh My. My Maclyn is now FOUR! And she is going on fourteen... heaven help me! This child has so much personality, it is probably illegal. She is about as sassy as the day is long, can be meaner than a snake, but yet she gets her feelings hurt easily and lets everyone within a mile radius know that she isn't happy. She is a beautiful little girl who is full of sugar and spice and has made life exciting since the day she was born! She is famous for wearing her emotions on her face, plain for all to see. She is genuine and funny and loves to talk and tell stories. Maclyn, we love you so much and we enjoyed celebrating you turning 4!
