Grace started ballet and tap class, which she's been looking forward to all summer. I actually think she's been more excited about the outfit and shoes than the class itself. At a restaurant a few months ago, she saw a little girl her age with her ballet outfit on...since then she's been looking forward to eating out after the class too.
Grace was a ballerina for Halloween when she was 2, so Madeline wore her old leotard to Grace's class. She was very happy to dress-up, but rightly so, her attitude changed when she saw all the 4-year old girls go into their room for class without her. I took this picture right before she threw herself on the ground, kicking and screaming when she realized she couldn't go. Sam found a lollipop to give her, so she forgot about the class. We have no problem anymore using candy for bribes or to cheer them up.
