Sun Salutation

Thanks mainly to the command center Daddy got her, Betty has made impressive progress in just one week. She'll stand up if you help her by pulling on her arms, and she frequently pushes up into the position you see here. This is also a basic yoga position--downward facing dog. I've been doing yoga off and on for about 12 years. I did yoga fairly often while pregnant, and there for a while I was going to an Ashtanga yoga class here on campus before the semester got the better of me. Betty, however, has much better form than I do and sometimes she just goes into poses naturally. I got to thinking about the goals of yoga, and it makes sense that a baby would be better at it than anyone.
