Full of Fire

It is funny when I hear people talk about what boys do and what girls do because none of those things that are stereotypical girl really happen with Peanut. When say stereotypical girl, I mean being calm, not getting dirty, not getting into things and not climbing on things. As with most stereotypes, there is probably a reason why it exists.

At Peanut's recital tonight, it really hit home for me. She is different than other kids. She is rowdy and entertaining.

Below is her recital. It is a long clip (about 8 minutes), so if you watch it, you might want to let it run first on your computer then watch it on the replay after it has already run. Peanut is the second little girl to enter the stage. She is also the little girl in the front and middle most of the time. She is also the little girl who sits down. She is also the little girl who wonders off to the back of the stage and starts messing with the flowers.

She has good moves though. I am really proud of her for that and for being so entertaining.
