Ballet Saturday

Here's my day:
9:45 -10:30: Sydney's ballet class
12:15 - 1:30 - Claire's ballet class
3:00 - 3:45 - Claire's costume fitting
4:00 - 5:00 - Claire's rehearsal as part of Act II of the Nutcracker

As fried as I am, all I had to do was drive and sit around. As soon as we got in the car after the last trip, Claire popped a book open and has immersed herself in it ever since. As a book person, I completely get it; she's been around people all day and after a while, it's just a relief to retreat into a book. Here's a photo of Claire in the "zone." 

She'll need to recharge, she's got a 2 1/2 hour rehearsal tomorrow! Fortunately, this all culminates very soon, in three performances of The Nutcracker during the first week of December. Despite her need to get away from it at the end of the day, she's loving every minute of being part of the production.
