I really tear up on this seen, and when I hear the music. A beautiful little 5 year old girl from our community died in Sept from brain cancer. Tangled was her favorite movie and at her birthday/memorial celebration someone sang "I see the light" and her parents and 2 big sisters released a lantern and over 500 of us released lite balloons. It was truly beautiful and there was not a dry eye in the crowd.
This week her parents and 2 big sisters got to take the trip that they were all suppose to take. Make a wish had promised her a trip, but her cancer was so aggressive, she was diagnosed in June and died on Sept. 11th. Make a wish does not send the families after a child dies, so our community and over 18,000 people on face book contributed money to make sure this family got their trip. I think the girls had a good time, but the parents really struggled to put on a happy face when all they could think of is how their beautiful baby girl was not there. They bought her pins, got her her own autograph book and brought a stuffed hamster that she had when she was sick. they posted a photo with stitch and the hamster was sitting in his ear!!
If you want to read her story, her website is getwellgabby.org Her parents are starting a foundation to help end childhood cancer.
SO sad!


I think it is one of the best Disney movies made since Aladdin. Personally, i love it bc the songs are catchy and can be stuck in your head all day. They brought new life to the tale and did it wonderfully. The lantern scene is by far my favorite scene in pretty much all Disney movies(I even have the song on my iPod).
