The LION KING!!


Something about the Lion King struck a chord with Ella as a toddler; she was singing "I just can't wait to be king" before she could speak full sentences. We watched it on youtube. We downloaded the songs for her. We described a "someday" trip to New York to see it on broadway. And finally...finally...it came to Dayton!

Mimi was kind enough to treat all the grandkids to the show, and Ella spent the entire time (literally) on the edge of her seat.

Who are those grown up kids?!? Wow!! Wish I could've seen Ella-bug's sweet reactions. Seems like just yesterday she was belting out "I Just Can't Wait to be King" in all her glory in the master bath in Gulf Shores (both parts of the song of course, imitating each voice, with emphatic hand motions). :) . So sweet...love that girl!
