Babeeeee's First Day of Ballet...

I survived my first class, and may I just say that it was absolutely incredible - my body felt like it was doing exactly what it was meant to do. I don't know how to explain it except that, as I was walking home, I felt so joyful that tears came to my eyes.

The studio's a mile from my house. I walked home in my leotard and tights (with my street clothes on top) and felt like a teenager again.

The best part? I felt like I had dozens of folks out there supporting me all the way. (That's you!!!)

Thank you.

Pics of me in my leotard and tights (let's think of them as "Before") are up on my profile. Would someone please paste them here? I can never get that to work with my browser. Thanks!
