I LOVE: Ballet clouds.

Yesterday was wear-your-costume-to-ballet-day.
Emma was a cloud.
Yes.
A cloud.
It was all Emma's idea. A few weeks ago she got some clothes out of storage. A gray shirt and some tan pants. She said, "I look like a cloud! I'm going to be a cloud for Halloween."
So we made a crown out of cotton balls and white glitter. We cut clouds out of cardboard and painted them white. We dumped an entire bottle of white glitter on the fluffy clouds. We connected them with blue ribbon and put them over Emma's head on her shoulders.
Emma went to ballet.
I love Emma. She sees the world in an beautiful, fun, thrilling and yet matter of fact way. She laughs loud and with lots of energy. She teases. She's extremely sensitive and nurturing. She loves to read and is fabulously smart. She is thoughtful and full of kisses. She loves a quiet moment and will sit for a very long time enjoying a project. She'll also be the loudest person in the house. Emma watches out for the underdog and is a true and dear friend. She's a dreamer and an artist. She sings with her whole heart...and loves that way, too. She thinks of things like being a cloud for Halloween. Who thinks of that?
Emma does.
beautiful. LIFE.
Note: If you are looking for a ballet school in the Charlotte, NC area, we are loving The Belmont School of Ballet...

Davina! I'm pretty sure that you switched to Canon, if you did, your pictures are looking FABULOUS!!!! Great move.
Davina, What's Insight??? Just saw it on Uno by Lauren Clark :) Do you have something up your sleeve???
Hey Krystal, Insight is the official name of all of my kits I've put out in the past 10 months or so. I need to give them a more official place on my blog!
Lauren, I haven't switched to canon...I'm glad my images are looking awesome though! :)
Carol...oooo! Glow in the dark glitter! That would have been so stinkin' cool for trick or treating night!
Destri, homemade costumes are fun. I love that my kids go for them a lot of the time...and our homemade costumes are not fancy. We make them up...a lot of the time the kids use their imagination and put them together themselves. I love that!
Laura, I'm so glad airy came across in this post. You get me, girl!
Amy, thank you!! :)
Love it! I am still using my GTKY kit! Its a selling point with my clients!
These images are so angelic and truly beautiful. Makes me wish I had girls... almost.
