Ethan and his friend Ethan were out playing in the yard. I was working out there and keeping an eye on them. They got bored of the sand/water mess, and started hiding in the bushes playing good guy, bad guy.
I hear Ethan tell his buddy, all exasperated, that he is Darth Vader and he HAS to call him "MASTER".
What is to become of this crazy dude?

...Wahooo!
This is a ridiculous thing to blog about after six weeks. However, it is such a momentous occasion, I have to do something to celebrate.
We finally have Delaney's pointe shoes! They fit! They have the little elastic thingeys on them...in an "X". They have the lovely shiny ribbons sewn on to make them look beautiful and official. She has the little bag of lambs wool to stuff in between her toes. All we need now is the giant blisters. She is ready to destroy her feet.
It seems silly, but it has been such a stress in my life for so long! We've made SO many trips back and forth to get them right, and then to get the bits sewn on. My mother-in-law is a saint for helping us. Truly.
(I will politely leave out the swearing, muttering, general crustiness, and finally the "that's it you are NOT going to do this" parts. We'll work on repressing all of that.)
