My daughter came to me today fully garbed in Cinderella gear "Mom, how did Cinderella's daddy die?" I've let her watch Ever After with me before, so we talked about how this showed Cinderella's daddy having a heart attack, but she wasn't too convinced. "How did Cinderella's mommy die?" This one I really don't know, so I said so. After some thought, Little Girl decides "Cinderella's mommy and daddy were killed by bad people. I don't want my mommy and daddy to be killed by bad people, so I am learning to fight bad people! My princess friends are coming over and we are going to practice fighting bad people with the sword (imaginary - we don't even have a pretend sword) I got for my birthday." I nod my head and think to myself - and thus a warrior princess is born! ;)
