I was trying to distract Christian tonight while we waited for our pizza to arrive (he was so hungry), so I asked him if he would like to see me do some ballet (sorry, no video).  He gave me a half-smile and nodded his head, so I did an amazing leap (think MAD TV, "Look what I can do" guy) and a pirouetteish kind of move.  Michaela burst out laughing and Christian smiled.  He said,"Is that really ballet?"  I walked across the living room saying,"I seriously doubt it."  Then I headed back toward Christian and executed another (not) stunning and graceful move, and finished with my hands up in the air (think "Superstar!" or the "Y" of "YMCA") and one foot back behind me, bent knee in front.  (I know you have a good visual.)  I looked at him and said,"Do you think that was [really ballet]?"  He shook his head and replied,"That was karate."

I didn't know I was so talented.
