Dancing




My african daughter literally dances through life. When she is swaying her hips...my oh my! Dancing is in her blood. One week after her 4th birthday she started taking dancing lessons and she loves it. She takes ballet and jazz classes and she cannot wait until she is old enough to start hip hop classes next year. It is funny to see her among all the other (white) girls, they are very very skinny and she is......well, very african.
I had a hard time finding this black-girl-ballet-poster. It looks so much like her, even the small pink earrings and the long eyelashes.

  1. Ohhh heerlijk! Ik was vroeger ook altijd aan het dansen en dat zou ik eigenlijk weer moeten doen, heerlijke manier om te bewegen en het luie zweet (en de overtollige pondjes) kwijt te raken. De tekening doet me ook aan 'the princess and the frog' denken. Hebben jullie die ook gezien? Ik vond het weer zo'n Disney wonder, ik hou er wel van. Groetjes aan jullie prachtige dansende prinses!
