Dear Brooklyn,
You started dancing this month, at a school I mean. It has definately been the highlight of your month. Maybe even your year. You and your two little friends look so beautiful in your leotards, skirts, tights and shoes. It is a mix of ballet, jazz and tap and in June you will be putting on a mid year show for us. I can't wait!
Your new found independence has now extended to making sandwiches. You have to do it yourself most of the time but under supervision of course. I have taught you to hold the bread flat on one hand and the knife in the other, and you are great at scooping out peanut butter... the rest of the process you are still mastering. The idea of holding the knife flat to spread the peanut butter doesn't quite register so you hold it the same position you would to cut the bread. It makes for a rather lumpy sandwich with tufts of bread missing but I am sure it tastes better than anything I make you.
Hey Brooklyn, guess what?
I love you
xx Mama xx
Brooklyn quotes of the month
"Yes Mama, I am tall ... but my head is small, it needs to get bigger so I can touch the ceiling"
"Phew, that's beda. now the hot weather won't ged in my eyes!" (as you put your sunglasses on)
Nana Shona is over staying with us again to escape the earthquakes. You make her laugh every day, but I think you filled me in on a secret she didn't expect you to talk about.
"Nana Shona can take out her teeth!!"... "They not real teeth though. They just p'etend."
