"My name is Tinker Bell!"

Ahh, the sound of scurrying in the hallway, yelling, "Mommy, where's my Tinker Bell costume?" I looked down @ her with a grin and told her it was in her hope chest along with the rest of her dress-up costumes and jewelry. Not even five minutes later, she comes back fully dressed in her costume w/ her matching shoes and asked me, "Fix my hair like Tinker Bell."

As I was fixing her hair, I saw a little plastic baggie held tightly in the palm of her hand. I asked her what was in the bag and she said, "oh, it's Tinker Bell stuff". So she laid it gently on the kitchen table then slowly opened the bag to get them out. Her small hand reached in to grab each little piece at a time to set them up. Oh course, I knew what I needed to do which meant to turn on her movie, "Tinker Bell-Lost Treasure." As the movie started, Maddie got into it deeper and deeper with that one-sided look with her eye...I tapped her on the shoulder and quietly asked her, "Maddie, do you want anything to drink?

She looked up @ me and responded, "My name is Tinker Bell!"
