A ballerina in the making


Our kids are so lucky- they have the best grandparents! Both sets live nearby and are very involved. Yesterday, we were lucky to have Chet's parents (Nanny and Papa) over to celebrate Chet's birthday. We usually see Nanny and Papa in family gatherings so the girls were thrilled to have their undivided attention.
Somehow, Steve (Papa) got roped into helping Chet with the pool and Jackie (Nanny) got roped into a private dance lesson from Julia and Bella. They cut her no slack whatsoever! The little drill sergeants told her to keep her toes pointed, to kick higher and that her arms looked like "dead birdie arms" which is a phrase that Julia's teacher uses when their arms start drooping.
Thanks for being such a good sport!
