Midway into the story...
C: So then I remember when Romeo fell, he fell, you know, he fell on the soccer grass.
L: The soccer grass? What do you mean he fell on the soccer grass?
C: You know, at the end of the ballet, when he fell, he fell on the soccer grass!
L: Huh?
C: The SOCCER GRASS!
Pause
L: Do you mean the sarcophagus?
C: Yeah, the soccer...I mean sarcophagus.
SHE'S FOUR!! And what's more, none of us can figure out where she got the word sarcophagus. It wasn't me, or her mom or her dad. This child is brilliant. I want in on her Nobel Prize when she is 12.

I love this post. Thanks lots, dear. XO.
I'm starting to get an idea for a film that combines the power of Shakespeare with the power of sport.

Which sport? Jai Alai?
Upon further reflection, I think she was saying "Sacre gras!", which means "Holy Fat Thing!" in French. Was Juliet plump?
And nice undies.
No, Juliet was fairly thin - but I did do Firebird once where a reviewer thought the lead dancer was too hefty. He called her a "plump Robin."
He was right - she was fat.
