Today is Saturday. We take the girls to ballet today and it's the highlight of mine and Hutch's week. Hannah, Chloe, and Juliet all put on pink tights, pink leotards, and ballet shoes and put their hair in buns. Chloe and Juliet still have their baby pudge so their little tummies and bottoms stick out of their leotards and it is the cutest thing I"ve seen ever in my whole life ever. ever. Hannah is so elegant and she is really developing the skills, it's beautiful to watch.
I watch them run around and wave their arms and I want to explode with all the emotions I feel. I love them so much and it's like my own heart is running around outside my body. Or more literally, dancing around.
After ballet lessons, we head over to Jack's soccer game where many crazy parents are yelling at their 6 and 7 year old children to score a goal or defend their goal. Last week Jack was goalie for a while. He was standing too far inside the goal which prompted much shouting. After he came out the proper distance, he blocked a kick, which was the highlight for his dad and grandparents who were on hand for his first game. They all cheered so loudly, Jack stopped and looked over with a smile and a wave and...you guessed it...the other team scored. AHHH!!! Jack quickly looked over to his dad to see if it was ok and Hutch gave him a huge shout and a reassuring smile and the game was back on. Their team lost by two points 6-8 but Jack told me this morning that he left the field with a little smile on his face because he was "happy for the other team".
