Swan Lake Chinese State Circus

My daughter sent me this link today. I was totally impressed. Even if you are not a ballet fan, I recommend you watch this video. The first part are frog people. The impressive part comes with the swans. Watch it until the end, it's worth it. Let me know what you think.

Okay, I'm impressed!

And to answer your question....our oldest daughter, Emilie, lives in Denmark with her mom. She's my step-daughter. So yes, she speaks Danish. And no English.

Emma is of course my daughter and she is learning Danish.

No way... when she is dancing on his arms and then his head... oh my gosh!!! Seriously... no way!

Agility, flexibility, strength, and a whole lot of faith in that guy! I had to close my eyes a few times!

Hi Nadine. I linked to you and this video today on my blog. I pray that everything is going well for you during your transition. If you find yourself in need of prayer for anything specific, please let me know. Meanwhile I will lift you and Tom up to be blessed during this time.
