September , 2011. Western Head, N.S. The Surprises of Life.

Who knew that Jackson, Mississippi is a center for ballet in The United States?    And who would ever know that three grandchildren love their ballet classes each week?   It is the most unlikely but lovely surprise for me.

Molly will soon turn four.  Now she is able to attend ballet school.  She has been wanting to attend for a year but she was too young.   Every time her older sisters dressed for ballet school, she also got ready, complete from head to toe.   When asked about her class, she correctly replied that "I do not have my class today", which was true.  But now she is beginning her lessons and she is thrilled.  She was not pleased at all when class was over.

Ballet lessons are invaluable.  I wish I had taken them as a young person.  Now the move to Jackson has allowed the three grandchildren  to benefit from the expertise available in Mississippi.   Life is full of unexpected surprises.
