We officially ruined Kailey's childhood. She is big on princesses lately and she got a new pair of PJ's with Tinker bell on them. So she has been asking for a wand "to be like tinker bell" so I made one with a stick and taped a star on top, it looked pretty good, i thought. but apparently she wanted one that did "real Magic" she kept trying to make a crown and it didn’t work and she wanted to make things with her new "magic wand" i tried to explain it was pretend, but that didn’t cut it, she wanted "REAL MAGIC" (mind you she is crying because she doesn’t understand) it was so sad having to tell her all magic was not real and she rebutted with "there is magic on Sleeping beauty and Cinderella... and Tinker bell has magic and wings" (she also wanted Shaun to make her wings so she could fly) i tried to explain it was all fake and cartoons. It was so sad and she doesn’t quite get it and still has been asking for real magic. What do you say? I told her to have her dad explain it because what I was saying wasn’t clicking. So Shaun tried and she still didn’t understand and replied "But Dad, you can do anything" shatter number 2, telling your 3 year old dad's are not all powerful and really can't do everything. SO SAD!!!!! What do you say? She has been totally bummed for the past few days and will randomly say things like " I wish I had Real magic" so sad, we were trying so hard not to laugh as we explained this sad thing to her!

ya. i know how she feels. i remember when I first figured out that Shaun wasn't magic. It took a while to get over it.
Hi Callie! I'm a blog stalker and I found you... check out your bro's pix on my page.. This is Chandra Bullock by the way. Congrats on the lil baby, your kids are adorable! See you soon!
Oh, how cute it that! I really don't know what to tell you. I think you are handling it just the way I would. Maybe you should say that there is only magic on tv, that all the magic is in the tv and it can't get out. I don't know. I am just making stuff up here. Anyway, you should put that in her journal or something. So cute!
