Miss Carefree Rachel


We all went to the movies the other day. The kids are way too excited about Christmas so we needed an outing to distract them. We could not all agree on a movie so John and Julia saw one and I took the little ones and Rachel to another. Our movie ended earlier so we had some time to kill in the theater. Well Rachel spent 30 minutes (I'm not kidding) staring at the wall and smiling and waving her fingers and doing a few dance steps here and there. I stood there watching her and wondering what she could possibly be fantasizing about. She was definately having a great time. Eventually she finished and walked over beside me. I asked her what was going on in her imagination and she pointed to the wall and said, "I was leading them in their show". Silly me, I didn't even look at the wall. Of course that was what she was doing. The theater wall had fancy 1950's show girls painted in lines all over it. Duh - who wouldn't pretend to be the leader of the show!
