This afternoon, we spoke to Princess Butterfly, our most special four-year-old in the whole wide world, via the wonders of Skype.
The Princess spared us a few moments of her busy little life, although she has never been one to sit around and just "chew the fat." She's always got to be going somewhere and doing something. We did hear some updated stories though. For instance, last Friday, while on a visit to a shopping mall with Sweet Momma M and Ice Princess, she got a bit bored with their shopping, preferring to strike out on her own.
After a few moments of unease (aka near panic) when Sweet Momma M and Ice Princess realized that Princess Butterfly was no longer with them, their glances happened to fall on the Disney store opposite. There Princess Butterfly was not "lost" at all - merely receiving her royal due. She was being helped into Cinderella's wedding dress and "glass" slippers by an attentive shop assistant. Sweet Momma M and Ice Princess did manage to whisk her away home again, sans dress (its price tag was pretty hefty), but avec slippers. Princess Butterfly proudly wore them to the Disney on Ice spectacular that she attended the next day.
The Princess also announced that she "hates" school. When asked why, the single word response was, "Naptime." Princess Butterfly does not like to be told what to do and when.
Ah, Princess, if you only knew how much you will appreciate naptime, scheduled or otherwise, when you get to be a little bit older!
