My post was not in response to your post but to the posts that followed. It was not motivated to judge anyone but to make one aware of the things that are said and things that are done go both ways, and without communication much gets lost. Quick example, I have a friend with MD. She has a vehicle handicap pass. She parks and walks into the store and people make comments (label as you wish). No one can see her leg braces as she always wears pants, no one can see her physical pain as she is very reserved about who she shares with. Unless you know her on a personal level you know not what she goes through. That is the easiest and quickest example I can think of. My original comments were about how we should communicate to better understand each other.
I will share one thought I live by: I do not let anyone, I mean anyone, steal my joy.
I have written and rewritten this several times as my motive was not to judge. I could give you plenty of stuff to judge me as I am a very imperfect human. I can say the wrong thing or act in an inappropriate manner before I realize what I have done and need to make amends.
We get them every year.
Pictures are starting to come up
Rest time over Heading to the MK
Are you a part of the Perfect Princess Facebook page? https://www.facebook.com/groups/275260305964413/

They are trying to find as many Perfects as possible!
@courtneybeth Thank you for letting me use your 5k buddy pass! and thanks for introducing me to rawthreads so I could get the rest of my family registered in the various races!
No. I don't do any social media stuff. I have been on this board for over 10 years and find it enough.
I talked to some one working at the expo and she said that there were 250 perfect princesses. There was not 250 for the photo around 4:30 am, but they don't really announce that that is going to take place. It is in front of the entertainment stage in the gathering area before leaving for corrals.
But thanks for asking. I do plan to return for 2018.
Are you a perfect princess?
It cracks me up every time someone asks me that question. Yes, I am a perfect princess (the whole reason I come back now, so someone will call me perfect)! I heard the same numbers at the expo, but have seen several stories of people who did not make the race or didn't finish. So it will be an even smaller group next year. I was at the stage for the photo, I think quite a few of the "perfects" were stuck in the traffic. My daughter took lots of photos, but none of them really turned out, I would love to see the one that the official photographer took, but haven't spent the time looking for it. So nice to talk with you! I am already looking forward to next year!!!
Also got the wrong item - jacket instead of sweatshirt. A $40 mistake on their end...Got the first of three shipments from my one ShopDisneyParks app order from shortly after Princess. Got the wrong item. Thankfully it's not a Princess thing, but a small world phone case that I didn't get. Got an Olaf snowglobe instead. Boxes sholdn't have even been the same size; not sure how that "switcheroo" (what we used to call it at amazon) happened!
last time I ordered from disneystore and got something that was wrong they did NOT make me happy in how they handled it. Hopefully since it's nearly 10 years later they've figured out how to be more like amazon and will do it right...
And now I'm hoping that the next two shipments simply contain the items I ordered...
