Ava in 2007, in ballet and tap class. Already 37 inches taller than any other girl there. Sometimes I wonder if other mothers think she's mentally handicapped and being held back. Ava's reliving my life, always 20 feet taller than the other girls. I slouched my way through school (not because I was embarrased by my height but because all of my friends were 17 inches shorter than I was, and I wanted to look them in the eye), but Ava's posture is lovely now and I think the maind reason for that is her ballet training.As an INTJ female (for those into Myers-Briggs and the like), I am a hard person to know, and an even harder person to love. I wonder if someday my children will want to know what really went on in my brain. I shall leave them this gift. Well, maybe not so much a "gift" as an extremely uncomfortable last will and testament.
