She has the best imagination as I know most 4 year olds do. On this particular morning she was watching her newest movie obsession "Tinker bell Secret of the Wings" and asked to get the dress up clothes out. I love to watch her when she steps into her own little make believe world of fairy wings, princesses, castles, and forests. You can just see the magic in her face as she twirls around, looking herself up and down as she catches a glimpse of her wings in her shadow.
On this morning she wants me to call her Tinker Bell instead of Jillian and I happily oblige. It doesn't matter that her wings came from the dollar store, it doesn't matter that her hair hasn't been brushed this morning and it doesn't matter that she's sitting on a dusty old wooden floor.
Because when you're 4 and you put on fairy wings you really do become Tinker Bell.
