Cinderella

For Christmas G received a Disney Music Player Storybook.  It came with a little "CD" player and a few discs with "princess" story music. Some of the songs are from the soundtracks of the Disney princess movies others are well-known classical pieces - basically ballroom type music.  G is SUCH a prissy girl (when she's not playing Star Wars with her brother :).  She spends lots of time just flipping through the pages gazing at the pictures.  Lately, she has taken to setting the book down in the middle of the bonus room floor, turning on the CD player and "dancing" (at least that's what she calls it).  Mostly, she just runs in circles around the book - what can I say, she got her daddy's dancing skills :)  

All of this dancing has had me thinking a lot lately about Steven Curtis Chapman's song Cinderella. Of course, that song is written from the perspective of a father - but I think a momma can relate too.  And THAT is exactly why I created this blog.  When our little Cinderella is headed off to the Prom (assuming her daddy allows her to date before she's 40, some poor boy passes his inspection, and braves the threats of bodily harm) I want to be able to look back and remember these days of "dancing" around the Princess Book...
