Dance like nobody is watching...

Dancing is an everyday affair at the Cosby home. One of the girls favorite things to do is to blast loud music and prance around the house in varied styles of dance. Ben and I use it to our advantage too. We dust and mop while we dance, we hear about Belle's school day while we dance and we burn lots of energy while we dance.

With the start of school came the beginning of a new chapter of formal dance training for Isabelle. This is her third year in dance, taking a year off last year to try out gymnastics only to find herself back in the studio again. She gave up her tap shoes this year for jazz and still wears her ballet shoes each week too. Isabelle was thrilled to move into the "black leotard classes" and has the perfect dancers physique. With any luck she will follow her Christensen Aunt's footsteps and thrive in dance for many years to come.

And so it began with Olivia's adventure through the dancing world as well. At just 2 she enrolled in Mrs. Boni's Tot's Tutus and Tails class where she currently has the fluffiest leotard and can't wait to put it on each week. She is very proud to go into the dance studio alone each week and follows rules as well as anyone her age. Isabelle is beyond thrilled to see her little sister dancing and begs to miss school each week to accompany her to her class.

We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.
