*smiles blissfully* But are your daughters ready for Sophia Marlow-Law as a cousin and Lawrie as an auntie? ;)
Oh my yes. My oldest daughter (age 10) is a truly excellent ballet dancer who loves staging performances and dreams of attending the San Francisco School of Ballet. As real life and fiction come together here, I can see some unexpected Forest/Noel Streatfield crossovers. Hideous competition and envy from Sophia Marlow-Law, while [Rowan's] daughter Margaret is wifty and eccentric and completely unaware of how annoying her natural talent is to those around her. The fact that Margaret lived in an orphanage for the first 7 years of her life will simply add to the Streatfieldishness of it all.
