Ballerina Girl

Well, our little lady has started her ballet training in earnest. We expect that with the rigorous 45 minute "princess tiny toes" class she's taking this winter, she'll be dancing with a Russian ballet company before long. Here is a clip of her second lesson.

....and here's my favorite overheard conversation during the class:

Teacher: Ok class, let's reach our arms up in to the air and touch the pretend castle in the clouds...reach! Now, what do you see in the castle? Avery, what do you see?

Avery: Cinder-grella!

Teacher: Oh, good, and L, what do you see?

L: Flowers and a unicorn!

Teacher: Great! And R, what do you see?

R: A dirty trash can!
