Karen, you're not alone in the struggles of leg behind the head! Mike likes to imitate the funny little head bob our neighbor's cat, Mr. Bubby, does when he peeks in the door. Yesterday he started to do it and stopped short saying, "ow! Dwi Pada is making my Bubby impression hurt to do!" We busted out laughing as he rubbed the back of his neck. I have to concentrate on not doing the inward fold too!! aw… Karen, you’re not alone in the struggles of leg behind the head!
