The Performer

We've long known we have a little dancer on our hands (or did you forget about this video?)  However, it's now become clear that Avery loves performing all around.  In the evenings when we're sitting in the living room before bed, she'll announce she's going to sing us a song.  Then she'll pull up a chair or find something to use as a platform, grab her eukalele, and say, "This song is about ..." and then make up a song.

Dancing, though, remains her favorite form of performance.  When we go to the grocery store, she finds the spot in the produce section where the floor has a patch in it unlike the rest of the floor, then she'll stand on it and dance.  Let me tell you, when we hit New Seasons on senior discount day, she's got the attention of all those senior lady shoppers!

I assembled some video bits from this summer of Avery's dancing and performing.  Pardon the not-so-great videography.  While she loves to perform, knowing the camera is on her often distracts her from the task at hand, so I have to be somewhat stealth about it sometimes.
