I especially love it when she loves things that I love! If creating a shoe store for her Barbies wasn't enough - last night she really stole my heart.
Tripp & Viv were both down for the night. It was almost 8:00 and Easy was done with the yard. We decided we would look and see what nature shows we could find on TV and spend some time with our Princess. As we're getting things settled we have this converstaion:
Paris: What are we going to watch?
Mommy: I don't know, let's see if we can find a show about nature or animals or something.
Paris: Can we watch that show where the guy gets bit by the A. C. R. S.?
Mommy: The R.O.U.S.?
Paris: Yeah.
Daddy: You want to watch The Princess Bride?
Paris: YEAH!!!!!!!
What joy, what joy!! We snuggled into the couch and watched the movie as a family. Everytime Easy or I would quote with the movie Paris would say "I can hear you!" I told her that I couldn't help it. Quoting The Princess Bride is completely involuntary and totally required when watch the show! It was fabulous!
And just in case there are any of you out there that are not familiar with this classic - an ROUS is a Rodent of Unusual Size. I'm not sure what and ACRS would be - any ideas?

Hmmm...
A Critter Remarkably Sized?
Glad you guys had such a good time together. I should have known the little princess would love "The Princess Bride" just like her mommy.
Awww...so fun! I definitely think its a crime to grow up without knowledge of ROUSes. (Jason had to introduce me to them after we were married, because I was obviously deprived as a child).
We have gotten our kids to quote the Princess Bride around here, too. J loves to do the wedding scene. We also use "inconceivable!" whenever we can.
