this is elizabeth. she is four. when i called her queen elizabeth, she corrected me and said “no i’m a princess, my mommy is a queen.” she showed me her ballerina moves, karate kicks, and moana songs. she said her favorite thing to watch is coraline, so i showed her my coraline tattoo and she stared in awe then rubbed my arm and giggled. she told me she loves hot cheetos, just like me. then we spent a long period bonding over sparkly hair ties, toys r us, & pinky promises to have sleepovers soon as long as i suuuuper swear (with a kiss to the hand) to be very gentle with her favorite toys. i could’ve spent all night talking and playing if it was up to me. thanks for making my entire week princess lizzy, i miss you already pumpkin 😩🧡 p.s. this eye contact put me in a COFFIN. A PINK SOFT CUSHIONY ONE.
