Dance, Baby, Dance

So, you chose to strike this pose before entering ballet for the first time.

I simply love the way you are standing in this picture...

Mika, you are an absolute joy to all. You are spunky, energetic, feminine, nurturing, and extremely empathetic. I have to be careful about letting  you see others when they are mad and sad because your heart hurts for them and you will often cry for them. You sing and you dance ALL this time and right now you do some seriously "legit"moves. I am so excited for your ballet/tap/gymnastic endeavor. You thoroughly enjoyed gymnastics and told me ballet was your favorite...We shall see, we shall see!

These last two pictures, I thought, were adorable...Although a little blurry, you can still make out that beautiful pony-tailed girl.  I have seen many a verse in my Bible about dancing or leaping with joy, therefore, I will try and help make it an act of worship for Mika as she gets older!  There are many songs that refer to dancing that I love. One is called The Untitled Hymn: 
O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live
                                                                                              And another...I Can Only Imagine:
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I
fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine

I LOVE YOU, Mika!! You make my heart sing and dance;)
