Emma E told me today, that she was a dancer before she was a baby. Perhaps that is why she stands on the tip of her toes so often. It is a habit she learned before she even arrived.
Love and hugs,
Merideth, both you and Emma E. deserved an essay for this marvelous revelation. I never thought there

makes me glad I stayed the route but truly there was no option. The world has broadened itself and
so has our scope of it.
