While Maia was sick, I got tired of watching our limited supply of Princess movies (Tangled, Snow White) and Netflix faves (Wallace and Gromit) and finally hauled out Lord of The Dance. She wasn't sure she wanted to watch it at first... but she was intrigued. And then when daddy sat down and told her some of the story? Oh, it became a new favorite.
So within days her "dancing" style had changed. Hands on her hips, lots of hopping and kicking. And, because she's just of that age, she wanted to try on the idea of being "the bad guy" (Don Dorcha). Then came the resurgence of wearing my heels for extra clicky sounds.
Cue mommy and daddy getting annoyed with the clomp, clomp, clomp.
So it occurred to me that we had some hand-me-down tap shoes from Lydia. They're a few sizes to big, but even tap shoes must be quieter than a toddler in mommy's shoes. The response? Don't let the photo fool you... she was thrilled.
