Arts



This Little Girl
She seems
to love anything to do with art.
And she can't seem
to get enough of it.

The International Dance Festival came to town last weekend.
Thursday,
she went with Grandma
Friday,
she went with her cousins, her auntie, and me
Saturday,
she went with me

Every night, she made her way to the front
Just so she could be close enough to study the costumes
(because this was her favorite part she said)

And every night, when it came time to go home
She nearly cried
and begged
to come back the next night

And so we did.

But Saturday night,
when there wasn't a next night,
she really did cry and said,
"But Mom, the Aborigine said he won't come back for like 7 more years!
and you just have to see him Mom! Because in like 7 more years, he will be old!"

?
I guess that was a good enough reason to try to convince me.

Oh.
She also devoured a plate of chicken curry
2 out of 3 nights.

Who knew
this little girl would like curry?
