Lady Girls

Lady girls.  They are an interesting breed!  They love to sing, dance, dress-up, splash around in the tub like mermaids, have their nails painted, and wear colored chapstick (aka lipstick).  They are more like the adult version of me than the kid version of me, though I don't really sing and dance or splash around like a mermaid.  (Right now they are playing with their Barbie mermaids and telling each other how adorable they are)  And they LOVE arts and crafts (which they don't get from me either!).  They had fun at their first zoo class a few weeks ago, where they made peacock costumes and learned about rainforest animals.  They frequently strike a pose, with Leah looking like more of an 80s queen (or dork) like me and Hannah like a professional model (scary).  And they are both princesses.  Leah spent 10 minutes at dinner last night telling us if she had one wish it would be to have wings and be able to fly around the house, using her fairy dust.  Clearly picturing herself as Tinkerbell in that moment, as opposed to Elsa from Frozen.  Both girls have now moved on from mermaids, and are currently singing "Let it Go" in their room, a song frequently performed at our house and others, sometimes with microphones or guitars, but always with great hand gestures and strong off key notes.  They are still in dance class, and seem to want to stick with that.  We have their performance to attend in early April, and probably many more to come for these little ladies....in our dining room and on stage!
