Ballet

Abigail is copying poses from her 2 ballet books borrowed from the library. Arabesques were her favourite, but lately she has also asked for her mother's arm to be a barre, her mother to support her arabesques, copying miming of "frightened", copying sleeping beauty's pose while sleeping, barre exercises eg. battlement tendu, arm and feet positions.

Pascale loves to copy her sister, one day she chased Abi to look at the same ballet book, then twirled in her baby way as Abi had. Pascale was very wobbly after a few turns and kept on falling over. Luckily they were on the carpet. Mother and grandmother were helpless with laughter as they filmed the dancing sisters.
