Daddy’s girl
Forgot to post this from a few weeks ago!
The munchkins just started watching ‘The Little Mermaid’ all the way through recently. Up until now, the witch scared them too badly and we always had to turn it off. One Saturday morning when I was home with them, Genevieve watched it to the end for the first time. I had put it on the portable DVD player on their little table in the living room while they ate breakfast, and she stayed in her seat, completely enthralled, until the end. When it was over, she came running to me in tears.
Me: What’s wrong?
Genna: I’m sad, Mommy!
Me: Why? The movie has a happy ending!
Genna: No! She has to leave her Daddy! That’s sad!
Me: But she marries the prince and is happy with him.
Genna: No Mommy, she has to leave her Daddy and that’s sad. She’ll miss him!
Can you tell she is a Daddy’s girl?
