Our Make Believe Girl

Marie has always been...how should I put this...dramatic. Andy believes this is a part of me carried out through her but I believe it is all him :)

Marie having a tea party with her pals.

Along with this "drama" comes amazing independence, imagination, and some acting lately as well. We live with all of the Disney princesses...Cinderella, Belle, Ariel, Aurora, and Snow White to name a few.

One of Marie's favorite things to do is wander around the house singing their songs, acting out scenes from the movies, and even repeating exact lines with staging involved.

For example, she pretends the wall is the tree where Belle peeks around the corner to watch the Beast with the birds, she pretends the the washcloth in the bathtub is the rag used to clean the Beast's wounds after he saves Belle's life from the wolves....yeah, it gets that detailed. I have to admit I love it about her. It shows that she actually uses her imagination instead of letting a video game or talking doll do the work for her.

The video below was shot right before bedtime as she was singing as Ariel...the chair is the rock in the ocean where Ariel is watching Eric on shore I believe.
