Jenn is going to redecorate Ana and Evangeline's room.

They've picked the colors, everything is getting repainted, it's going to rock.

Now, Evangeline wants mermaids and ballerinas on the walls (pre-k and the rigid gender-typing culture of so many four-year-olds has hit her hard, it's all "boy games" this and "girls like" that). Ana, of course, wants a moose.

So I had a brilliant idea.

A ballerina mer-moose!

Tell me that's not just awesome. It could even sparkle! (No, seriously, I'm thinking glittery pink antlers and shiny purple eyes.)

My sister thinks I'm crazy. I know I'm not. I'm just a visionary. A VISIONARY, DO YOU HEAR ME???

Yeppers, this is a great idea. Just think about it.

Well, clearly a mer-moose is the way to go, but I'm not sure about throwing in ballet on top of that. A tutu on a fishtail? Difficult.

Moose doing water ballet would be interesting, but I don't know if kids really know what that is, these days. The head moose could have a crown of sparklers... yeah.

The tutu's not so hard. It's the leotard that's giving us problems, though!

Model it after the top-middle, only with a tail and clamshells to go with the tutu: http://www.eclecticpaperie.com/hanna.html

Clamshells strike me as improbable bras.

Especially if you're the size of a moose!
