If there was a new celebrity on the block at Disneyland, it was Elsa. This “star” has kids lining up for hours to pose with her Frozen magnificence. Fortunately my kids have never been character-obsessed enough to beg me to do that (nor would I) but at the end of one of our Disney Social Media Mom Celebration sessions they announced Elsa and Anna would be posing for pictures with attendees.
Without the long wait.
You’d better believe I high-tailed it outta there as if Marshmallow, Frozen’s icy snowbeast, was chasing me down North Mountain.
I called my husband on my cell. “Get Hadley down here, PRONTO.” Hadley adored the movie and she was thrilled to meet Elsa and Anna.
And apparently underdressed for the sub-zero temperatures.
As I awaited my turn, I carefully analyzed the two characters and thought of my wedding. After a full day of smiling for photographers, I had reached my limit and couldn’t crack even one more smile. How do these beauties embrace enthusiastic kids all day long without cracking their perfect veneer?
Finally, it was my moment. I nestled in between the two of them. Elsa looked at my Soybu outfit and sweetly raved, “I just love the color of your dress.”
Which pretty much means we’re BFFs now.
