Princess Wishes







Today for Teresa's "wish", we went to the Studios to meet the cast of Beauty and The Beast. Teresa was mesmerized by the show . Afterwards we went back stage and met the cast . Teresa and Belle talked about being a princess, make up, jewelry, wishes , dreams and of course wearing oxygen . I know the characters play a certain part and are scripted on how to talk to the children and how to interact with them but this princess really went above and beyond any of our expectations to accommodate Teresa. She made this dream of Teresa's so special . You could tell she really was touched by her .
This evening we went to GKTW for a Christmas dinner. Every Thursday is Christmas. We had dinner with Mrs. Claus. Afterwards we met Santa and all of the girls received Christmas gifts. There was Cookie decorating, caroling, snow , horse rides, stories, and more gifts... To say GKTW is an amazing place is an understatement. They truly make everyone feel so special .

    I had no idea about Give Kids the World! What an awesome organization and Henri's bio on their website is a wonderful story.

    Congratulations again, Ann. The memories being made here will last a lifetime in your reader's hearts.
