penelope was a later jumper. i know right? weird "skill" to be late at. but she has been skipping around and calling it jumping for about a year. a few months ago she started doing a few froggy jumps on the ground, but still never jumping OFF anything
until she discovered her love of the stage. lately she has been adament that we watch her "show"
she gets on the stage (fireplace) where she proceeds to introduce herself "ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to the penny dance show"
then does a "trick" (usually twirling)
then she instructs you to clap while she does an amazing bow.
we see maybe 9 of these "shows" a night.
well, she finally decided to up the ante of the trick and jump OFF the stage.
it was brillance i tell you. pure brillance.
the raw talent of this girl amazes me.
