This month Maida had an end of the year preschool program and also an end of the year dance recital. She was very excited about both of these things and did a GREAT job making us proud!
Preschool Program...
After they sang songs and played a slideshow from the past year, they had an ice cream social for all of the students and their families.
Maida had two preschool teachers, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Tiffany. They told me at the program that they always called Maida, "Pickle," because during one of the first weeks of school, Maida had noticed that they were calling her sweetheart. She asked them, "Why do you always call me sweetheart?" and Ms. Jessica replied, "Well, what would you like me to call you? Pickle?!" So, that became her nickname.
Beckett's mom and I helped each other out on preschool mornings by one of us running Beckett and Maida into preschool and the other one sitting in the car with the siblings. It worked out great because I really didn't want to haul all three kids in and out of preschool in the freezing cold.
Maida's first dance recital...
Maida was a robot for her very first dance recital. She looked so cute in her little blue and white tutu! She felt so beautiful and fancy with her hair up and make up on. I'm not quite sure if she was actually nervous for the performance, or just really really really excited.
In the middle of the show, they stopped the music and made an announcement that all of us had to go into the basement because there was a tornado moving through. I couldn't believe how many people how many people had to get packed into the basement and how big the basement of the school was! We sat down there for about an hour and then they were able to finish the show.
Klaasen was very antsy! He wanted to GO GO GO!
Maida's main teacher's name was Melissa.
The teacher that helped Melissa was Laurie.
Ellie, one of the older dancers who helped Maida on stage, made Maida's day by giving her a gift!
We bought Maida a rose as a "congratulations." She was so excited to get her very first flower!
Dance recitals wear Daddies out!
Ha ha! I read the title wrong and thought it said "Maida's Big Mouth." I kept reading waiting for something funny that she said! She is such an adorable little girl!
