Jane had her 2nd ballet recital last night. At her first recital she was in the 4th or 5th group to perform. So, naturally, she was the 4th or 5th *last* group to perform this time around, which put her at the 25th group to perform. I burst with pride when she performed, and it was fantastic. Hers was one of the few groups to even attempt to dance, and they were doing a tiny bit from Swan Lake.

Leading up to that, however, it was like the scene from A Clockwork Orange where his eyes are pried open, except this time he’s being forced to watch America’s Funniest Home Videos for two hours. And there’s a 4 year old crawling on him. “Daddy, I’m bored!” “Daddy, I’m thirsty!” “Daddy, I’m hungry!” “Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, loook at that!”
