failure, a light bulb moment, and a dilemma

I have failed miserably at finding a yoga class for Mayra. The only one I can find is 6:30pm Fridays in Dover, 30 to 45 minute drive each way for a 45 minute class. Plus, to give it a try for 4 weeks would cost $150 to $160 not counting gas. We would have to pay an annual program member fee, in addition to the class fee, and there is no guarantee we would do any other programs.
My only hope now is to take training or at least get info on teaching yoga to kids, and teach a class myself, but I really didn't want to teach and I think it would be more fun for Mayra if her Mommy was not the teacher.
Another alternative would be to keep my fingers crossed that the Bear Glasgow YMCA will offer something when they open next Spring.
Sometime within the last couple of weeks, Mayra decided she wanted to make a pizza, so I bought a kit and we made pizza tonight. It wasn't craveably delicious, but it wasn't bad either. I kept telling Mayra how good it was and what a good job she did, and she ate pretty well. Ahaaaa, maybe she will eat a better variety of foods if we fix more together...
I bought some time to watch Jeopardy by letting her paint for a bit, then she cleaned up by playing with soapy water in the sink, more fun than scrubbing with a nail brush and the results are the same.
We were watching tubbies and a girl was packing for a trip, so I told Mayra she would have to pack for our trip to Florida, or "Floria" as she would say, and she is convinced that she absolutely must pack all of her toys to take with us. Don't know how I will get out of that one.
