WorthGrowingOld_0004.jpg

A grandmother, mother, and young daughter are baking holiday cookies before going to a performance of The Nutcracker Suite. They reminisce about past holidays when the mother was young and the grandmother took her to the ballet. Aware of the passing of years, the grandmother talks about how spending these moments with her daughter and granddaughter make it worth all the aches and pains of growing old. And she has an announcement. She produces a tiara saying that she bought it for the girl to wear to the Nutcraker. In fact, she bought two so the mother could wear one, also. Laughing, the mother announces that she also had gotten a tiara for the girl. The girl says that the third tiara is for grandmother so they can all be princesses and ballerinas. When the grandmother protests that she isn't a ballerina, the girl insists on showing her mother and grandmother some ballet moves that she has learned. They dance offstage, wearing their tiaras.
