Never under-estimate the power of a woman: even a little one!

For a long time now I have been planning a long weekend getaway to Florida with my brother and his family.  We don't get to see them much but this year has been the exception.  I have see them a lot!  That has been good for the kids to get to know their cousins more.  We only have 5 days which we had planned to spend at Discovery cove and the new Harry Potter theme park.  The kids have been dying to see that!   Last week my little travel planner Kaeli got into her flow-blown planning mode and started our day-by-day schedule.  It was then that she realized that Disney World was not in the plan.  She went mad!!!  For days she bugged her brothers to agree to skip the dolphin swimming to go see princesses.  I told the kids I didn't care what we did but they all had to agree.  Kaeli can be quite persuasive when she wants to be.  I think they told her yes to shut her up. She printed off a 40 page booklet of every ride and the order that we should ride them in.  So here we are in Florida with a 3-day pass to Disney World and a 2 day-pass to Harry Potter.  I haven't stop smiling and neither has she- she won!
