Small and white

My big girl is enjoying her new ballet class. She is rehearsing for a show in June at Burnley Mechanics. She has been given the part of an Edelweiss and we need to learn the song*. She will have a costume with little white petals around her face. 







































Waiting patiently for class. 







































Off she goes. Confident and precise. My little Edelweiss.


*Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white,
clean and bright
You look happy to meet me.
Blossom of snow
may you bloom and grow,
Bloom and grow forever.
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.

Music: Richard Rodgers
Lyrics: Oscar Hammerstein
