Embrace Your Inner Fairy Princess

Every night after I put Tensley to bed, I get to enjoy this very special one-on-one time with Tegan. We read books (I let her pick two) then we say prayers and I sing her three songs. There is alot of giggling and snuggles! I Love it!

We have an Awesome library out here and a Book Mobile (a library on wheels) We are constantly switching out books (mommy needs variety) If it were up to Tegan we would probably read the same few over and over (she has her favorites) smile! As I read all these different books I always appreciate the little life lessons I pick up from the book.

I thought you might enjoy this little lesson from this book or if not it's a cute gift for a little girl!

The book is called The Very Fairy Princess by none other than Julie Andrews (yes, Mary Poppins herself) and Emma Walton Hamilton. The Book is illustrated by Christine Davenier. This book is on high rotation in our house and I find it to be very charming.  I find it hard to not read this book in my best Mary Poppins accent. 

 


Lessons are:

  • You can be whatever you want to be, if you just let your sparkle out! (This one is my favorite! Makes me smile every time I read it!)
  • If you feel it inside than you are a fairy princess.
  • Fairy Princesses are always presentable.  You never know who you may bump into
  • Fairy Princesses are very practical
  • Fairy Princesses are very supportive.
  • Sometimes you have to speak up
  • Fairy Princesses know when to take charge.
  • Fairy Princesses like to keep extra gifts on hand for special occasions.
  • Fairy Princesses know that practice makes perfect.
  • Fairy Princesses are very creative
  • Even a fairy princess needs a break to keep her sparkle from sagging (This one make me laugh! Its my other favorite- No one wants their Sparkle to Sag!)
  • Fairy Princesses need lots of beauty sleep to recharge their sparkle.


So get out there and
LET YOUR INNER SPARKLE OUT!!!

Find out what makes you sparkle
and let it shine!!!



Laugh, Love & Sparkle!
