Flashback Friday--The Ballet Diva

It's time again for Flashback Friday! And guess what I discovered this week? Tara at Too Much Information does a flashback Friday carnival, too! This month's theme from Melinda at Bloggin' it From the Burbs is sports and recreation.

Growing up, I was into one sport--ballet. I started taking lessons when I was 3, and I continued until I was 9 and had lessons 6 days a week. I was in a travelling company of dancers. At 9, with my mom's suggestion, I quit ballet altogether because it was just too much. It bothered me for years (that I quit), until my 3rd year of college, when I took a ballet class. It was then that I was able to bring some closure, and I didn't wonder anymore if I "should have" stuck with ballet. I love to dance, I had some talent, but I'm glad I didn't make it my life.

Here I am at age 7 (I think) as an angel.

One year (and one year only) I tried soccer. I was not good at it. I've never been good at team sports. I prefer to socialize on the side lines!

Now the question that I want YOU to answer is.....do any of my kids look like me??

PS--I tired to add both Melinda's and Tara's buttons, but for some reason, blogger is not letting me right now. Hmmm....Never had that problem before!
