"Try wearing my special good luck leotard, " said Sophie. Sophie was one of the big girls at the gym and she could do beautiful cartwheels on the beam.
So Maddy put on the special, sparkly good-luck leotard. She did wonderful cartwheels on the floor, down the wedge mat and on the trampoline, but she still couldn't do a cartwheel on the beam!
Leotards
Daddy asked me
How many do you need?
One's not enough, I said
What if it's dirty?
One for competition
(Can't wear that one every day)
A special pink one that makes me feel like a princess
The green with dots for fun days
Blue with sparkles makes me work hard
My Canada one but it's too small
The orange and purple one makes me strong
The one handed down from Big Taylor to Little Taylor to Sophie to me
It's special good luck
The blue Hawaiian one Mommy likes
The black one that's too big
And scrunchies to match them all!
(Aren't you glad I don't like shoes, Daddy!?)
