our little Odette

After getting all of the letters correct on her first try all day, Abigail finally got her Swan Lake CD. I was pleased with myself for finding something she actually really loved (and I love listening to)- she laughed out loud she was so excited about it.

The kids floated and twirled around the living room all evening. For never really witnessing a ballerina in action- only me, in my ill attempts to resemble one (Can you picture me, leaping and leg-kicking in our living room? Don't.)- I think Abigail may actually have a real knack for ballet, for dance in general. She talks with great enthusiasm about "when I take dance lessons" more and more. There's a studio right down the hill, which I've seen little people emerging from with bouncing tutus, and the previous owners of our house began sending one of their daughters there at a young age (they still commute here, five years after their move). We may have to look into it.

Here are our budding artists...
