Ha! My daughter; I wish I could've taken pictures, but it is -- after all -- an art museum. She went dressed in purple sweats, hot pink tutu skirt, white lace hippie shirt, and wings. Then, when she got there, she danced through exhibits, stopping occasionally to freeze in position and get a sly look on her face. She gave herself the title, "ballerina ninja" and she played the part.
Thanks. I love that Olivia considers the art museum her playground, but only in the most respectful way. She doesn't touch things she knows she shouldn't and she's not loud. Most people we encounter are quite delighted with her playfulness. We're regulars at the museum, and even the docents know that they don't have to worry about her. Going is so much fun!
SMITH Magazine is teaming up with Gretchen Rubin, author of the
bestselling book, The Happiness Project, as well as the popular daily blog,
to ask readers to share their "Secrets to Happiness"—in just six
words. Gretchen writes about happiness and how to take manageable,
concrete steps to become happier in everyday life, and her own
six-word Secret to Happiness is "Accept myself; Expect more from
myself."
