Lilja's favorite weekend of the year is here. It is the Bear Dance weekend. She has gotten a , ribbon dress, ascarf and a new brooch this year to add to her beautiful shawl. and she seems to have gained a lot of self-confidence already within one day of dancing. the bear dance is a celebration of life and is honoring the women of the tribe the women are the ones choosing the men to dance with them and the men cannot refuse. I am just so impressed and proud of our little girl. She carries herself with such poise and grace. So little and yet so grown up already.
