mr. frog on the way to ballet rehearsal

it's been a long day and i have more pics to post (including some beautiful ones from our walk along the river), but it'll have to wait. sleep has been in short supply and since jack is now asleep, i should be too. morgana has been putting her costume together for her solo, and rehearsing a duet with her friend deychen. chanda spent the entire day rehearsing for her ballet recital, and then dancing the first performance at 6:30 this evening (with a brief stint up to her acting class to rehearse a scene for their end of year performance next week). greg has been moving large IT structures in new jersey, and i think korrina is now babysitting.

  1. Julius was trying to get and eat a frog outside this evening! I think he is upset because we blocked his way to the magnolia tree where he was trying to eat the breeding wrens. The frog was making pitiful sounds and Charlotte rescued him.

    We are done, recital that is! It all went well and I am so relieved. I am tired too, all the excitement over the last few days. Jack is like a newborn baby: When the baby sleeps you need to sleep also, isn't it so? Sleep well and long!

    Love from West to East.

    1. That Julius is such a hunter!! Poor little frog. I'm impressed that you found a way to block his path to the breeding wrens! Congrats on surviving the "showcase!!" (I agree that recital is a nicer word). Yes, Jack is quite the old baby these days, but I think I've reached my limit, and I think he has too. Poor dear. Enjoy some quieter days, now, Eva.

  2. Chanda is looking very tired in this shot, it must be all that dancing! I loved watching her observation class videos, no wonder she has been accepted at the Royal Ballet School for the summer intensive.

    Morgana is too hard on herself! She too is very talented and I love listening to her guitar pieces.

    It must be nice for you all to spend some extra time with Korrina although I hope she finds something soon in the work line.

    Hope you have managed some extra sleep this weekend.

    Much love to you all

    1. Hello San, It was a busy day for her! Thank you for the good words for Morgana! I'll tell her. I thought she was too, though it's the first time she's done that. Usually, she's more accepting of where she is with a song. Maybe she is setting higher standards now.

      We have been enjoying the time with Korrina!

      I slept very well Sunday night!
