A Real Mermaid... Sort Of ;o)

Theme: Nature vs Nurture

 

I sat for hours (hours and hours and hours...and some more hours) and made my little girl a mermaid outfit, she chose the fabric, details and watched me like a hawk every stitch!

 

You see, she is 4 and her dream is to be a *real* mermaid...

 

We went down to the beach today and even with the wind whipping around us and the water being cold, little Savanna was a very professional mermaid. Even though she ended up in tears a little bit because she was cold, she told me later on, wrapped in a blanket in the car: "Thank you for making my dream come true"

 

This was truly a case of Nature (the beach) vs Nurture (a mother's time and love)

 

Hope you "like" it :o)
