Snow Day Ballet
Those sweet feet.
The girls had their own ballet practice today since we had a snow day. It was two hours of mostly “Mama, watch me!” They danced to Amelia’s Nutcracker record.
My girls are so different. This one is so much drama (and gorgeous!)…
and always has an inner story going on…
And this one is pure joy, everything on the surface.
This one is for Aunt Melissa. Remember leaping over the row of shoes with Mrs. Mole?
Amelia enjoyed dancing with her shadow. And I might have let her try her tap shoes on our wood floors. She has some tricks I didn’t know about!
Dance class always ends with Dead Bug!
I liked Dead Bug much better than 4 Corners. According to Amelia’s 4 Corners rules, the teacher never says the same corner number twice, and therefore, the game never ends! She goes to the corner I just called, each time.
Daphne’s just getting started. She’s really cute. But, I really can’t believe how well Amelia moves her lanky limbs. Maybe this is normal, but this is not her parents.

I remember jumping over the shoes. We were supposed to be flying leaves. You always glided over the shoes with grace. I fell, skinned my knee and cried. My agility must have improved, as I run easily on all sorts of crazy trails with unexpected things to jump over and around, daytime and night.
PS
Amelia looks like her mom in the ‘gorgeous’ shot. We have good genes (on all sides)!
