At the first sign that you are nearing, the excitement begins to build. The children are getting giddy. Even as an adult, butterflies fluttering in my tummy. And then you see it . . . the entrance to Walt Disney World! I can't wait to put my luggage down and hit the parks! And what is the first park on the agenda?! Well, of course, Magic Kingdom! Upon entering the gate, none of us, including Dad, can wipe the smiles off our faces. And I have been known to drop a tear or two. ;-) As we make our way down Main Street straight to the Castle, we have to stop for photos with Disney's Photopass. Because we have to capture the first emotions on the children's faces as we draw near the castle. . . We have arrived! Standing still, in the heart of Disney, for what seems like an eternity, taking it all in. It is truly Magical! As we stand there, I am thinking to myself, I never want to leave this place! Then I feel a tug at my shirt. Standing still is NOW over! "Momma I wanna ride Dumbo!" "Oooooo! Can I have a balloon?" "One with a light inside!" "Look over there! Its Mickey!" . . . . And it doesn't stop the whole trip. And every time they are surprised and in awe as if they have never seen fireworks and Tinker Bell do what she does best. There faces lit up with pure joy, the excitement in there voices, and the twinkle in their eyes; that is why we LOVE Disney. And that is why we are planning the next trip before we ever leave the park. Where do you go first? And what is your favorite Magical Memory?
