I’ve gotta agree...

The thing that struck us about the Princesses? To them, we weren’t there...every bit of their attention was focused on the kids who came up to them. Those young ladies were so gracious, caring, patient...I guess, in a way, they truly are princesses.

They are truly princesses, and it’s great that they treat
each child like they’re special! It’s definitely a gift!

Precious!

The MBABGDITWs #1 and #2 and the MHABGSITW are going to Disney World and on a Disney Cruise over Thanksgiving. (Last I heard, they’re taking their parents along, too.) ;)

It’s great that you get to spend so much time with Piper. (Somehow I doubt I need to tell you to cherish every moment.)

A British ditty from the beginning of the last century:

“You do not have
To bribe or twist
The arm
Of the British journalist
Considering what he would do
Unasked
There is no reason to.”

Inspired by the “caveat emptor” principle of Roman law, which sounds a note of caution for potential buyers, media consumers should heed the unwritten warning, “Reader/Viewer/Listener beware.” And some Strong Criticism within the journalistic profession wouldn’t hurt either.

You do not have to bribe or twist -
Thank God - the British journalist.
But seeing what the swine will do
Unbribed, there is no reason to.

This, of course, applies equally to the Daily Mail (the paper that supported Hitler).

O God, I beseech You, watch over those exposed to the horror of war, and the spiritual dangers of a soldier’s or sailor’s life.

Give them such a strong faith that no human respect may ever lead them to deny it, nor fear ever to practice it. By Your grace, O God, fortify them against the contagion of bad example, that being preserved from vice, and serving You faithfully, they may be ready to meet you face to face when they are so called: through Christ our Lord. Amen

Mmm....it’s good to be back home. We spent a wonderful few days at the Park, and now we’re just relaxing before going back to the grind!

I guess it's all relative. We're only getting one weekend a month...or every two months...because of schedules and working and all that life stuff that seems to keep getting in the way! But you're right, we do enjoy every moment we get to spend with them.

Sounds like yours are going to have the time of their lives over Thanksgiving. And they're at an age where they'll remember all the good things that happen.

I do remember my little princess (aged 2 1/2) posing with just about everyone. Except Goofy. He’s, like, 20 feet tall. (Or so it seems to a 2 1/2 year old.)

He certainly is! She actually shied away from Mickey Mouse, but had no problem standing with him for a picture as long as Mommy was between the two of them!

Such memories they’ll have...
