She's now going to review and edit it six times, so there is still work to be done, but the bulk of the creative work is complete!
Madeleine decided we were having a party in the evening to celebrate. She put together a play-list of music and we had a dance party. Ethan and I started out strong, but both of our respective 40-something knees began to give out. Julia claimed to not know how to dance and refused to partake, although she did humor us with a "Cotton-Eyed Joe" contest against Madeleine. I declared Julia the winner, much to Madeleine's outrage, but to be fair, Madeleine crashed into the wall TWICE during the dance, and you've got to take gracefulness into account as a judge.
By the final song, we lamers were all pooped, but Madeleine still had a fiery energy to her and carried dancing with her bad self:
We finished the evening with a family game of Drawasaurus, per Madeleine's request to do one other family activity as part of the celebration.
I can't wait to see what kind of party we have when Madeleine becomes a famous published author!!
