The Twig

 Tziporah is always hoping that someone will swoop her up and set her on a stage so she can dance.

 Saturday, it happened!  She finally got to wear her costume and get all ready for her recital dress rehearsal.  She awaited her turn wrapped in Mama's scarf.

 Then she found out she was going to wear a Christmas tree costume over her beautiful ballerina cupcake costume, and she was not happy.  On a dime, she went from Shirley Temple to Shannen Doherty.  Screaming, crying, stomping, refusing to budge.

The show went on, one tree short of a forest.  I had some fun with hashtags on this one:  "When Christmas trees refues to branch out" was the caption.  #lookingalittlewooden #sappypost  #WOODnotperform  #noamountofneedlingcouldmakeher  #howlovelyareyourtantrums  #Otizzybomb

Then there was more pun fun on Facebook:  Tziporah was all spruced up...went against the grain on this one...I was rooting for her.  Mendy Winborg said she was "probably pining away for Kashka Oscar."  Maybe.  Breaking up is hard to do. ;)

 "Shannen" managed to eke out a few more tears as we left in disgrace.

 What do you do when your baby humiliates you in front of a warehouse full of parents?  Take her to Starbucks and buy her a snowman cookie and hot chocolate.  Hey, look how happy she is!  What am I going to do, punish her for her "tannen-bomb?"  Nah.
