Okay - I have one postscript to my last day before I compose my next entry. I can't believe I forgot this!
When we were in the Splash Mountain line, there were a couple of boys in line with us who looked to be about 16 or so. They both had on black t-shirts. One had shaggy hair (I don't think you're allowed to be a teenage boy without shaggy hair these days) and the other one was pierced. I figured them to be in the park just for the wilder rides.
I was telling DD that I didn't think we would have to time for everything I wanted to do. I told her if we didn't make it onto It's a Small World, it would be okay. Of course she was fine with this because she has no clue what anything is.
The shaggy boy overheard me and he said, "You can't come to Disney World and skip and It's a Small World! It's obligatory!"
The dear, sweet boy was Disney fanatic after all! See - this proves that stereotyping is a crapshoot at best.
I felt kind of embarrassed that I had suggested it out loud. So I smiled and said, "You're right - we might have to do whatever it takes to squeeze it in." And in my heart I knew he was right. Even if DH and DS didn't get on it with us, DD and I should try to make it.
And if you read my last entry you know already that we did! I just loved that that teenage boy found it necessary to pipe up about my plans.
More later! Thanks again to all who are reading.
