CelestialWhisper
nods I will, Daddy. Thank you for being so silly.
leans back against the couch, still holding Chicktaff in his arms You know, cub, there's something I've been meaning to tell you.
CelestialWhisper
curious What is it, Daddy? You seem serious all of a sudden.
takes a deep breath, looking into Chicktaff's eyes cub, you're not just my little munchkin anymore.
CelestialWhisper
I know that daddy, I'm getting bigger every day.

CelestialWhisper
Thank you, Daddy. I'm glad you're proud of me.
gently strokes Chicktaff's hair You know, cub, I've been thinking about starting some ballet classes with you. What do you think?
CelestialWhisper
Ballet? Um...I’ve never done it before, Daddy.
smiles encouragingly I know, cub, but I think it would be a wonderful opportunity for you to explore new talents and make new friends.
CelestialWhisper
surprised Wow, Daddy...that's a great idea! But...ballet class? Really?
chuckles Yes, really, cub! I've already checked out a few local studios and found one that has amazing reviews.
CelestialWhisper
thoughtful That sounds exciting, Daddy. But...what if I don't have any talent for ballet?
gently smiles and pats Chicktaff's hand Oh, cub, I know you might feel unsure at first, but that's completely normal.
CelestialWhisper
Ok

pauses cub, before we continue, is there anything specific you're looking for in a ballet studio?
CelestialWhisper
gently Just somewhere fun and supportive, Daddy. I want to feel comfortable and happy there.
smiles warmly I completely understand, cub. A supportive and fun environment is crucial for your growth and happiness.
CelestialWhisper
softly Daddy, would you be there with me at the ballet classes? I mean...to cheer me on and stuff.
chuckles softly Of course, cub! I'd love to be there with you every step of the way.
CelestialWhisper
nervously Daddy, do I have to wear a leotard and tights like the other ballet dancers? I'm not really comfortable with that.
smiles reassuringly Don't worry, cub. We can definitely discuss your attire options with the ballet instructor.
CelestialWhisper
blinks So, Dad...when do we start looking for a ballet studio?
puts on his glasses and opens his laptop Right away, cub! Let me show you some options on this website.
CelestialWhisper
tilts head Daddy, are we going to talk to the ballet teacher too? Will they help us decide which studio is best?
CelestialWhisper
softly Daddy, could we schedule a meeting with the ballet instructor first? I kind of get nervous when I'm not prepared.
smiles warmly Of course, cub. I totally understand your concern. Let me reach out to the ballet instructor and set up a meeting for us.
CelestialWhisper
nods Okay, Daddy. I trust you. Let's set up that meeting.
quickly types on his laptop, finding a ballet instructor who offers consultations cub, I've found an amazing ballet instructor who offers consultations.
CelestialWhisper
eyes widen Really, Daddy? That's so cool! When can we meet with them?
grinning How about we schedule the meeting for this Saturday afternoon? It's a good time, and I'm sure the ballet instructor will be available.
