The princess gets a tiara

OK so maybe I didn’t get my crown totally back, but for one day, I did get to wear a beautiful plastic silver tiara covered with gaudy plastic “jewels” designed for a 6 year old’s head. Princess Belle had a “milestone” birthday and and was given a lavish soiree for the event. The King and Queen even watched Prince Shut Up for THREE WHOLE HOURS so Prince Charming and I, accompanied by our court (ten friends), could have some adult conversation that was not interrupted with, “Crayons do not belong in our ears” or “Spoons are not used to fling food on the wall.” As we returned from our early evening out, we spent time with the little one, then put him to bed and continued with festivities. These, of course, were much tamer than earlier milestone birthdays before children were in the picture but still much fun was had. The princess really, really needed this!
