New Party Guests

My daughter is of an age that she likes princesses and sometimes they came to different parties she attends. Just before Christmas, Anna and Elsa from Frozen came to a local Christmas party, and she was quite taken with their pretty dresses. I took pictures of her with both of them and posted them.

Not long after, I got a text from a guy I train Jiu Jitsu with. “Who is that blond with the picture with Wee One?

I thought he was taking about me at first. I’m blond. I take a lot of photos with WO. I take my jewelry off for Jitz and am often photographed not wearing a wedding ring. He’s friends with my husband (and a lower belt) so I thought it was a little weird, but I thought he was kidding.

I started to write something playful back, then he sent me the picture to which he was referring. Ah. So I said, “Well, that’s Elsa. Duh.”

He was mystified. “I feel like there’s a reference to something Disney that I’m unaware of.”

This made me snort because of course he’s unaware of a Disney character. It made me realize how different things are for me right now as a parent. Which is okay, but I thought it was hilarious. So I played like it was serious. Because, really, she’s the queen, dude. Show some respect.

I sent him a video to “Let It Go” and dared him to listen to it out loud. He declined. Wimp.

Also, from now one, I think I”m going to invite my single teammates to any future WO’s princess parties.
