Today we did things a little differently. I decided at the last minute to send Jocelyn to Princess Camp at the dance studio this week. She was over the moon excited when I told her. She put her leotard and tights on as soon as she was finished with breakfast, and only took them off this afternoon when I told her she couldn't play outside with the neighbors in her dance clothes. It was amazing to see her embrace this activity as her own. She was so excited to get to do something her sister has done for years now. She is being treated like the big girl she is, and seems to be maturing before my eyes.
Just as fun to watch was the interactions between Ava and Molly. My oldest and youngest daughters get along wonderfully, but don't often have the opportunity to play together without Jocelyn around. This morning they took full advantage of their time together, playing, laughing, and having a grand ole time. The personal growth for Jocelyn and relationship-building for Ava and Molly will certainly be worth every penny Princess Camp cost.
