"Their Highnesses lived a normal, measured life and never boasted about their origins. They would rise early and soon begin their lessons. After the morning lessons, and also between lunch and tea, they would go for walks with their father. They spoke in Russian, English, and a little French. They never spoke German.
Although they danced well, opportunities for this were rare – except when the Imperial Family traveled to Crimea, where Princess Maria Baryatinskaya would organize dance evenings for them. The driving force in the lives of these charming individuals was their love for their family. They thought of nothing else but their home and family.
The objects of their affection were their parents, their brother, and a few friends. Above all, they cherished their Majesties.
The first thing the children, as we called them, invariably asked was: "Will Papa like this?" "Do you think Mama will approve?"
They addressed their parents simply as "Mama" and "Papa."
