Today, we will introduce Isabelle.

Isabelle often goes by the name Cinderella. Because she is, as she will no doubt tell you, a princess. When she grows up, she wants to be a Princess Doctor. We are not sure if that means a princess who is a doctor, or a doctor who only sees princesses. Any way, we know she will be wonderful at it. She certainly loves medicine, and any cut scrape or bruise needs a band-aid. Previously, Isabelle has wished to be the snack person at a Circus, and a kitty cat. I think I’m going to go for the doctor one, if I have any say in the matter.

When she is not being a princess, Belle loves to mimic a giant sloth (hmmm - thought I had a picture of this, but can't find it now. I'll post it later if I find it again). She has a weekly ballet/tap/gymnastics class, but gymnastics is her favo(u)rite (especially if it means hanging upside down from a parallel bar). Her teacher said it helps to strengthen them up, so doesn’t discourage her.

Belle goes to school two days a week. She didn’t like it so much earlier this year as her teacher changed early on, but she and the new one have warmed up to each other, and now she loves it again.
