Disney World Day Two: Our First Character Dinner. . . Cinderella's Happily Ever After

Thank goodness a friend told me to make reservations for character dining when booking Disney travel. (Thank you, Tammy!) I didn't even know such dining existed. This experience was really a thrill for Faith and Skylar! :) Also, for Mommy and Daddy. Although, I think Mommy got a bigger kick out of it than Daddy.

The Wicked Stepmother

Cinderella's Step Sister

Cinderella's Step Other Sister

Cinderella. :) Notice the male response.

Skylar enjoyed hugging Cinderella.

Prince Charming

Cinderella came back to our table and Faith received a special hug.

Just look how happy my dear princess Faith is after dining at Park Fare!

"Cinderella's Happily Ever After" was my favorite character dining. All of these wonderful people stayed in character no matter what was said to them. They were funny, witty and very entertaining! Cinderella was so regal and a very gracious princess. She commented to Faith on how much she and Faith looked alike, and how similar their princess attire. Faith really enjoyed visiting with her. :) Skylar also thoroughly enjoyed himself flirting with the pretty girls. Yes, he does flirt, and he's only 4 years old.

Skylar's Question

Skylar and I were having a conversation. You know, Mommy and son solving the world's problems. When Skylar asked; "Mommy, as I grow big will you grow little?" I tried to explain to him that as he grows bigger, and older that Mommy and Daddy will not get small, but just older. (We may get shorter, but I think that would have just confused the issue.)

Then he said the most beautiful thing. Skylar said; "Don't worry Mommy, I'll take care of you if you get too old."

What a precious, sweet soul my wonderful son has. I am such a blessed Mommy. :)

The Call

Every call has a beginning.

A quiet moment when GOD whispers a promise

to a mother’s heart.

A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him.

A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns, casting its first light on a chosen threshold.

A gentle knock, a closed door opens.

A sacred invitation sent by GOD, leads to the other side of the world.

Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows,
praying for someone to care.

And then one morning, on an ordinary day,

an orphan’s life changes.

GOD sends them a second chance, through you. . .

KISSES IN THE WIND

The Waiting Child's Lullabye

I hold you in my heart

and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me,

at least that's how it seems.

I know you wonder where we are . . .

what's taking us so long?

But remember child,

I love you so and God will keep you strong.

Now go outside and feel the breeze

and let it touch your skin . . .
Because tonight, just as always,

I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling,

I'm doing all that I can do.

Very soon, you'll have a family for real,

not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always,

I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God wrap you in His arms

and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses
