Tutus and Tights

I took Molly to an abbreviated version of The Nutcracker today, thinking she might enjoy seeing some real ballerinas. She decided that all of the dancers must be princesses, except for the male dancer who played the role of the prince. When he came on stage, Molly yelled out, "Mommy, why is that man wearing tights?"

I couldn't think of a good answer at the time.

We met the Sugar Plum Fairy after the show, and Molly got to walk around on the stage. I'm not sure if she was inspired to dance more, but it was a fun afternoon!
