I'm really starting to think that my little future damsel-in-distress has convinced herself that she is Rapunzel. She asks for wigs. She begs me to straighten her hair so that it will look longer (which I almost never do). She will sit for an hour brushing her hair. I mean seriously this girl is so silly. A few times while I have been brushing her hair she has even acted out parts of the movie saying "Oh, Mother, why can't I leave me tower" and if I don't respond the way she wants she will insist until I play along. "Rapunzel, you can never leave this tower again!!"
I never thought I would let my daughters be "princesses." You know....that child who thinks they are so beautiful and so much better than everyone else, and thinks things should be handed to them on a silver platter...make that gold. I remember talking to Rosvin during his first deployment to Iraq after we found out she was a girl. We both agreed that we did not want her to be that way. To think that she was better than everyone, that she was the little princess and that Dorian was just her brother. But my little diva has other plans. And I don't think I have encouraged that behavior. I let her pretend anything thing she wants and enjoy what she wants, but I have never told her that she was the princess. But she is turning into a royal pain. <<Pun intended. LOL Now don't get me wrong, she can be the sweetest little girl, but boy is she strong willed. I cannot even imagine how she is going to be when she is older. Hopefully she puts her princess attitude to good use and at the same time doesn't give me too much trouble. That's likely, right?!
