Dancing Queen - BSM
My child LOVES to dance. I signed her up for gymnastics class, but I really need to find a dance class for her somewhere. These pictures were taken the other evening. Some of my favorite times are when I am sitting there taking pictures of Ella and Keith playing together. It was beautiful out that night and Ella had already taken a bath, gotten in her jammies and we just ate dinner. Earlier in the day, we had heard the song "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" from The Lion King. Every time we sang Aweemoway, Aweemoway, Aweemoway, Ella jumped into a little groove. She was like a robot, right on cue.
She reminds me of a little Flapper girl here below, with the ruffles on her jammies and the headband on her forehead.
But this last picture I am calling my BSM. Because no matter what she does, just the look of pure joy and happiness in her face melts my heart.
Head on over to Tracey's to see more Best Shot Monday images.

Aweemoway, Aweemoway, Aweemoway would get me going, too :)
Lovely, lovely series...made me smile..BIG!
Beautiful!I love the colors and the hair flying! Ella is just so adorable and happy! I love it! Makes me want to dance too...except that I can't dance! :D
Thanks for the kind comments on my blog tonight.
what a great series! i can almost hear the music...
LOVE the close up form above. It feels like I am there.
Breathtakingly beautiful. For a moment I was a child and singing the Lion King song myself, and in face, will now probably be singing it to myself the whole rest of today! :-)
Oh Joanna! These are so awesome! Her joy and exuberance and laughter is right there...she's such a fun kid! She does look like a little flapper girl, hehe! The one you picked as your BSM is great, but I think I love the first one even more!
They really are all beautiful shots! :) I love the actions shots! I love seeing kids jump around and dance, it's just so cute.
Have a great week!
The colors are rich and vibrant. Very nice (and oh so fun).
These are absolutely precious! Pure fun!
She is so stinkin' cute! I love all the shots, but that "flapper" image really makes me smile!
Oh, you did such a great job capturing the moment. You can tell that girl has some moves. I am trying to decide whether to enroll my daughter in gymnastics or dance.
Cute cute series of pictures. :) I love the kittie fairy on her dress with all the rainbow colors. It makes the perfect outfit for her dancing. I hope you are able to find someplace for her.
oh my goodness! these are priceless! how adorable!!
Those are really terrific shots! I love them all. Especially the flapper pic!
They are all so wonderful but my favorite is the first one~ Too cute! I hope you got that on video too!
I SO LOVE the one before the last one. What sweet memories.
She has got THE BEST expressions!
Oh my Joanna...these are adorable!!! I love that flapper girl picture! How much fun that must have been to watch!
Looks like some great light for you too! That time of night...evening is my absolute FAVORITE time to shoot! The lighting is perfect! I love side lighting and back-lighting the most!
My dear, I think you have an unfair advantage with this BSM thing. I think it's impossible to get a bad shot of that kid! My 2yo has the same nightgowns--great for twirling!
wow absolutely gorgeous. these are too good!!!!!!
What a fun series of shots! You captured her spirit and dancing perfectly! :)
Look at her workin her groove!
