Hannah (3 years old): “Mommy, after we go to the plaza, can you drop me off at my ballet class?”
Me: “Um…You don’t take ballet Hannah.”
Hannah: “Yes I do.”
Me: “No you don’t.”
Hannah: “Yes I do. Today is my first ballet lesson. Can I wear my fairy dress to my first ballet class?”
Basic Ballet Dress-up Tutu Fuchsia – Hot Pink $3.99
Me: “You don’t have a ballet class Hannah. I’m not taking you to a ballet class.” I didn’t want to play along in case she thought I was actually going to take her to a real ballet class. She’d be pretty upset if I told her I would and then I didn’t. Plus I’m pretty sure she was actually talking about a real ballet class.
Hannah: “Yes I do Mommy. It starts today.”
Me: “Where is your ballet class?”
Hannah: “It’s on Cammen-muffin street.”
Me (laughing): “Um….” Seriously, what do you say to that?
Hannah: “It starts very soon Mommy. Can you drop me off please?”
Me: “We’re going home now Hannah, we have to have dinner and then quiet time. There is no ballet class, you don’t take ballet.”
I parked the car in front of our apartment block. Fine, in front of the neighbouring apartment block. In front of ours was full.

Hannah: “My ballet class is across the street. I’ll meet you over there Mommy.”
Me: “Don’t cross the street Hannah, it’s dangerous. Why don’t you go check the mail.”
We got inside and she ran to her room.
Hannah: “I need to get ready for my ballet class! Mommy, can you put one of your dresses on for the ballet class?”
Angelina Ballerina Matching Game
Me: “I have to get lunch ready Hannah, and besides, I can’t dance (seriously, I can’t). How about you dance, and I’ll watch you dance?”
Hannah (excitedly): “Ok Mommy!”
And then she did this:
Yes, my daughter is hilarious. But I’m sure you know that already.
Oh, and did you see that long sleeved onsie thing on the couch? Yeah, she got that out of Daniel’s drawer “for him to wear to the ballet class.” HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Maybe it’s time to sign Hannah up for a real ballet class.
yeah, but she takes gymnastics, so we don’t want to pay for that AND ballet….
I found your site on the top mommy blogs and really enjoy reading them. Your daughter Hannah is adorable! The video of her dancing is priceless!
Thanks 🙂 Yes, I think it will be one I need to pull out on her 18th birthday 🙂
