Jazz Hands and Tutus

Eliza is embarking on several rites of passage into life as a girlie-girl.

It may seem as if Eliza is doing her best "Jazz Hands" here:

The tom boy still lurks inside of Eliza since she has perfected climbing the rock wall in her tutu and her favorite toys are her Lightening McQueen and the King (or "Dinoco" as she calls him).
