Pirate & Pixie's Traveling Circus Part 20 THE END!

[WhispyPixie]

Before I fall alseep after this very long and fun trip, the conclusions that I have come up with are.....

I love my family first and foremost! I love the fact that I can take them anywhere and they can have fun! I have called them a traveling circus and that they are! They can have fun anywhere. They love making people smile, they love making each other smile and they love making me laugh! We make our own fun, even if things don’t go the way we want them too.

This trip I saw my dear Pirate striving to create memories with all his children, I saw him laugh at me, and above all I saw him put himself and his desires aside to make a special legacy with his sons and daughters! When we adopted our 4 children, he worried as the weather he would be a good dad. Would he be able to take other’s children and make them his own. I can honestly say he has! He loves them more than he loves his own life! Many thanks to him for being the Disney Dad that makes a difference in his children’s lives!

I saw Cell Phone Charlie grown up into a man. Knowing he will be off to college next year is killing me inside and I saw things in him this week that assured my heart knowing that he will be fine in whatever he chooses to do or wherever he goes. He has learned to be a team player, a compassionate soul and above all has learned that if you have the right attitude, you can do anything in life! He will take away with him the passion of WDW that his Dad has tried hard to instill in him! He has grown into a man of integrity! My prayer is that he will do the same with his future family! (WAY FAR INTO THE FUTURE CHARLIE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS)

I saw Cheergirl Jess hit that teenage girl stage and although it is not always pleasant, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. She loves to laugh and be silly. I wonder where she gets it from! She has shown that she is a great helper. It is amazing that this girl, as preteen irritating as she can be, that when the chips are down, she pops into gear, always there ready to help with whatever she can do!! With each of the trips that she has made to WDW she grows a bit more and it is my prayer that she too will grow up with a passion to want to share it with her children when she has them! Looking at her room covered with Pooh Bear’s I would guess that maybe she will!

I saw “Smiling Jack” Justin buy his youngest sister 2 trading pins with the last of his money, because he knows she loves Nemo and she never found one to trade for on a lanyard. I saw him laugh with his brother, wrestle with his Dad and jump on his twin sister’s back and make HER carry HIM around the park! I saw him share his passion for WDW stuff with his best friend and deep down inside I know he will be a skater in the Tarzan show..lol At least I will be able to stop saying, “STOP DRUMMING ON THINGS, STOP HANGING UPSIDE DOWN and he will get paid for doing what he loves! If I had to pick one of my children to do something with Disney, it would be him!

I saw Princess Erin, smile at the fireworks, and hug and dance with her favorite characters. I heard her tell me that she felt fine, even though I know she wasn’t because she wanted to share Disney with her family. I saw her eyes light up at the simplest things and I saw her overcome her fears on Splash Mountain and learn to love it! She still has many years at Disney and with each trip that she makes I know that she loves it as much as me.

I saw our friends having a blast with the things that we love. I look back, it wasn’t a rush, rush, rush trip, but it was close too it! They were there for all of it and the 11 of us will forever be able to talk about our fun memories!!

As for me. I saw Disney Magic in the eyes of my family and friends! That is all that matters to me! That is where MY happiness is. Seeing them happy in all that they do. Magic isn’t in the parks, it isn’t in the rides, it isn’t in the characters. It is in the hearts of the people that visit! Disney just gives a GREAT place to let the magic come out in our souls!

This trip was fantastic……got to go…time to start calling about AP rates! The Pirate and I are taking an anniversary trip WITHOUT the children this January!

Once upon a time always ends with happily ever after........Disney Dreams all.....


THE END!

You have given me goosebumps.........Thanks so much for writing your family's report. I truly enjoyed them!! I can't wait to hear how you and the pirate fare on your own!

Sorry Corky...but with a little luck, that trip report will be "unsuitable" for little 'uns...

Oh how I wish you could have posted pics but really loved your story! How blessed you are to share an amazing trip with all you love dearly - am just curious - what year did this occur? I thought I read somewhere 2003?

Bless you and your family for being so awesome!!

Yes...this trip report is from 2003. A friend of mine is planning his first family WDW trip and I sent him the link to the first installment of this report. I guess I kind of got lost in it again.
