Gymnastics and Dance

Although Maddie may look unsure, she was thrilled to start her first dance class today. True to her Aquarius self, when I suggested dance classes she declined, but when Grammie suggested dance classes she jumped at the chance! As my dear friend Caity once explained to me, with an Aquarius you do not offer them ice-cream, you eat it in front of them. Smiling for her mommy during a water break!
While sister learns the ballet basics, and taps her little toes off, mommy and Daniel will be having fun in their parent tot gym class. Doesn't Daniel look like he is having a great time?!?

Look closely at the anguish in the profile above, the true emotion is captured below!


What should come as no surprise to anyone who has ever witnessed Daniel and his constant need for motion, he did not like being confined to only one section of this wide open gym. But, he adjusted eventually...the motorcycle helped!
