Dancing Queen

Dry run @ the concert hall .. Niki was so excited about donning her costume and taking the bus to the concert hall .. the rehersal .. err not so much!

Niki's school concert is coming up fast..it's just a week plus away now..

And boy, do I still remember the last one .. which was (*gasp!*) a year ago..

my, my how time flies, eh?

I'm always saying that..

But it's so darn true..


Last year her class teacher said that though Niki is an excellent dancer (as excellent as a 4yo can be!) she tends to be a bit dreamy and sometimes floats off in her own thoughts .. well the ep is repeating itself again! Niki is actually a really talented dancer and if you see her floating in her tutus you will agree .. her movements are gentle and yet deliberate.. and she's got great music timing.. but like most 4yo she tends to be in her little world sometimes and may get caught up in their thoughts.. and so today I decided to drop in on her when she was practising in school .. and I saw nothing wrong, she danced really nicely..and so I told her teacher that yes perhaps she may daydream abit but which kid doesn't as I reminded her that they're a bunch of 4 yo and to cut them some slack, I guess over practicing can cause boredom as well.. I recorded her dance routine on my phone and showed it to her Daddy, and we both nodded in agreement that we shouldn't get too hot and bothered; for the simple reason that .. she's 4 .. :) and acting in a way that only kids her age know how..we should take a leson from them and not be too serious or set in our ways .. a little day dream may just be the antidote to cheer up your day!
