Perfectly Princess--Almost

Saturday Clara Beth was invited to a Princess Tea Party. I thought it would be the perfect opportunity for her to get one more wear out of the dress she wore to her third birthday party. After all this dress was a very "princessey" one! She however felt differently. She was excited about the party but not about wearing this dress. She did put it on but was not really as happy about it as I thought she would be. I had a beautiful(or so I thought) pink ribbon that had adorned one of my birthday gifts still sitting on my dresser. Being the resourceful one that I am I thought it would be the perfect compliment to this pink party dress. So with gusto I grabbed it and tied it into her hair. She sat very still on the bed and with the most serious face I ever saw said this..."I am the only one that is going to look silly". This was said with the exact look you see on her face below. I had to turn my head to hide my giggles. You would have thought she was about ten years old instead of three! I assured her that she did not look silly and all of the other girls there would be dressed in a fancy flurry of dresses, bows, necklaces, tutus and so forth.
"Are you sure?", she asked.
Then she decided to think about it...
a few minutes later she was still thinking until finally...
she looked at her self in the mirror and thought she did look like a princess...almost anyway. So off we went with smiles on our faces.





Here's hoping your week ahead is filled with pretty princess moments!



Until next time...

All glorious is the princess within her chamber; her gown is interwoven with gold.
Psalm 45:13
