Watch this space eh? I remember one of the first live shows we took the BA to. It was 'Peter Pan on Ice' by the Russian ice Ballet. She was about 5. When the time came for Wendy to tell Peter she was too old to go with him and send her daughter instead, my tiny girl sobbed as though her heart would break. Out Loud. Noisily. It was all I could do to stop myself from giggling as I shushed her and reassured her that it would all be OK. Patrons from all around were shooting accusatory glances at us! "She's enjoying it!" I quipped back at them............ Sounds like you have a connoisseur on your hands! Watch this space eh?

I've hesitated to take the boys to the Nutcracker, but perhaps we'll give it a try. They loved the Sound of Music (done by our local high school) and the Grinch (kids show done by the symphony). Maybe ballet isn't such a stretch. I appreciate the encouragment! Thanks for this post, Susie. I’ve hesitated to take the boys to the Nutcracker, but perhaps we’ll give it a try.
