*Mama's a mermaid*


Once upon a time there was a beautiful long haired mermaid who was always wandering around aimlessly looking for the love of her life…. she looked here and she looked there…. And she looked everywhere… but there was never a prince to “rescue” her.

One day she met an old scary witch and that old scary witch captured this poor beautiful mermaid and locked her in a cave. The mermaid lived for many long years in this dark cave and dreamed of the prince that would save her one day.

The cave that held her captive was on the side of a very high mountain over the ocean and sometimes she would hear the loud horn of a far away ship and she dreamed that her savior would be a pirate. She would hear the ship and close her eyes and dream of how he would climb the tall tall cliff and call out her name and she would answer saying “I am here my love”.

One day after the horn blew and she was lying there dreaming she heard the noise of a falling rock, and then another…. And another… and then she heard a voice call her name. How could he know? Could her dream come true? He called her name, she answered, he saved her and they lived happily ever after with lots of children!

And that’s the story of how my husband and I met through my four year olds eyes…. Only if it were true! Yeah, happily ever after…. That’s it…..
