I still need to blog more about Christmas, but I have been in such a good mood today and just have to share my joy. About two years ago I started a high intermediate-level adult ballet class with Ballet West once a week. It was so, so hard for a long time (I hadn't danced in like 16 years), but I loved it so much! I could tell I was gradually getting stronger and more flexible. It was my outlet. I attended this class for a little over a year, until I was about 21 weeks pregnant with Abigail.
Well, I made it my goal to start attending again after this past Christmas. I went yesterday for the first time again and was seriously in heaven! I still have lots of baby weight to lose, but I am excited to gain my flexibility and strength back. I love having a body that can dance and being with other grown-ups who love dancing as much as I do. The teacher is amazing! He stretches our abilities and wants us to improve, but he always reminds us that we are not getting a grade and don't have to audition for anything. We are just there to have fun. And I am!
