Maya is occasionally well behaved

Last weekend we took Maya and Hana to my mom’s annual Christmas piano recital. I was wary, to say the least. It is at our dear friend Florence Russell’s beautiful home, with beautiful things, which always means a Maya danger zone. We arrived as the recital was ending, and Susy came out to help wrangle the kids. Shockingly, Maya ran around and charmed everyone without a) breaking anything; b) eating a million cookies; c) tripping anyone; or d) throwing a loud tantrum or other incident. She was all sugar, and looked cute while gams paraded her around.

Hana was all dressed up too (in a matching outfit, provided by gams), but spent the whole time in Aunt Susy’s lap while people dropped by to ooh and aah over her. Daddy was chasing Maya around, trying to curb destruction, so he only has pictures of her.
