Emily the Ballerina and her mini-me

Emily had her ballet recital this weekend. She did so well and we are so proud of her. It did create a little problem for Claire. So in order to keep peace and quiet in my house and for me not to loose my mind I also dressed Claire up as a ballerina. This didn't quiet work out the way I had hoped since now that Claire looked like a ballerina she thought she was a ballerina and could not understand why she couldn't actually be with the ballerinas. And just as a side note you will probably be seeing Claire a lot over the summer in cute shorts and t-shirts with a tutu on and Cinderella flip flops. I have decided that's why my sister Elizabeth is the way she is :), by the time you get to the 4th child things that seemed so important with 1,2 and 3 aren't and they get everything they want in an effort for silence and calm.
