As adults, we might sometimes find something we like and over-do it for a few weeks or months, then tire of it. But the mind of a four-year old girl must be a wonderful place. No overdoing, no second thoughts.
Elizabeth has always been our Princess. I seriously think her first complete sentence was: “I am a P’incess.” And she’s right.
But here’s what she got for her fourth birthday, last week. If she is not puke-sick of princesses after this, I don’t think she’ll ever turn the corner.
A Princess birthday card with princess stickers (again, the genius of being four is that this $2 gift may have produced more delight than other gifts that cost ten times that).
A Princess dress.
A Princess towel.
A Princess bubble wand.
A complete set of Disney Princess figurines (because she got these on her last birthday, but gave away three of the princesses and the juju of the universe has not been right since, so we had to find another set…seven bucks, Target).
Complete set of framed Disney Princess photos, suitable for bedroom wall display.
Fabric coloring books, Princess style.
For dinner, we went to an Italian/Greek (when did those countries join forces, anyway) restaurant called The Castle, and Princess Elizabeth wore one of her Princess gowns.
Halloween’s in two weeks. Guess what Elizabeth is going as?
OK, then guess which one?
