Oh I just love his smile for Mickey. Kind of reminds me of our son the first time he met his beloved Minnie Mouse. Loren was around five at the time. I had this bad habit of being commando at
Disneyland. We would go back to the hotel for a break but the kids usually would go swimming with their Dad instead of resting. When we went back to the park Loren was still tired, and he was melting down. This was the fourth out of five days at the park and staying up past midnight and he was exhausted. We got back to the park and his shoes hurt and his clothes didn't fit right. It was total meltdown. He was sitting on a bench and crying in the entrance area and Mickey and Minnie came out for their normal visit time. Minnie came right over and dried his tears and kissed him on top of his head. It was love. He smiled through the tears, and the trip was saved. Even now at the advanced age of 12 he is still madly in love with Minnie. Thank you so much for sharing this. It is wonderful to see Parkers face and see the wonder in his eyes. The look on the kids faces in the park is a big part of the fun. I get great joy watching all the kids in the park, and watching how excited they get waiting in line for their favorite rides. I read all the time on another message board how ticked people get in line with the excited kids and I don't understand it. Their excitement is what it is all about. Sorry for the off topic.
