[QUOTE="Star*, post: 206028, member: 4964"] Admitting time - I danced classical ballet for 10 years. I was tall, thin, willowy and good. (modest too). My Mom was in the hallway as I practiced and leaped across the dance floor, pirouette, grand jette, (French spelling is off), and ple-ay...light on my feet, the only ballerina in the entire troup to fall up the steps and chip her front tooth....I was in swan mode.....little ting ting ting of my pointed toe across my left ankle. A woman came in with a young child and said "My she is beautiful, such a great dancer." My mother responded proudly with the usual agreeable nod and a thank you. Then the woman asked - "Did ballet make your daughter more graceful? My daughter is 4 and a klutz." With a poker straight face my Mother responded "Well.......(thinking pause) it has made her fall more gracefully." OH THANKS Mom - not like I'm dancing here with 2 cement block feet - But she was correct - and I still loose my balance a few times a day and I'm a klutz, a 44 year old klutz with a bubble wrap suit. lol The last time I did cartwheels? I skinned off the tip of my nose - my elbow gave out and I did a face dive down the neighbors cement driveway. I finally just stuck a bandaid on my nose and people quit asking questions. Hugs :funny: lil old bandaid nose [/QUOTE]
