Meeting Cinderella

Sitting side by side with Disney princesses is one of the greatest joys of a 5- or 6-year-old girl. This time around at Disneyland, Syd and Lex met several of their movie idols. Notice Lex's head tilt here. We didn't coach her to do that; she's a Disney princess in the making. In Syd's hand you can see an autograph book. The girls each had an autograph book that they carried around with them and had their favorite princesses sign.

And then, in a gleeful turn of events, a Disney employee in one of the shops came up to Syd and Lex and asked them for THEIR autographs! Syd, dressed at Ariel, carefully signed her name as "ARIL." ("I forgot the 'E'!" she later lamented.) Lex did her best to write "Aurora" (Sleeping Beauty), but she needed help spelling it correctly. Watching them sign autographs was Scott's highlight of the entire day.
