I phoned up this morning and got tickets for Megan, Thomas and me to go and see Sleeping Beauty, by Ballet Theatre UK this evening.
It was brill!
I wish I was a ballerina!!! I wanted so much to be one when I was young, but my ballet teacher said that my tea-tray-like-bum was going to prevent my dream from coming true! How cruel!! True, but cruel!
Both the kids seemed to really enjoy it.
Thomas says very little, other than that he doesn't see a career in ballet for himself! He reckons it looks like it's far too hard for him!
Meggie said that she wanted to see lots of ballets to inspire her in her own dancing. She was, however, not impressed with the male dancers attire! I mean white tights don't hide a lot!! Not that I noticed, of course!!
So, today I am grateful that I am able to enjoy part of my childhood with my own bairns. Special!
Gratefully yours.

Nice one to go and see with them when they already know the story. Can't see anything wrong with men in tights myself!!
