A Pride of One

It sounds like a tagline for the Marines, doesn't it?  Instead, I mean this:

One more in the name of love.

After weeks of actively hating the headpiece to her lion costume, weeks in which she'd cry when I put it on her and crawl away quickly whenever she saw it in her toybox, Livy has had a dramatic change of heart.  She found this while playing the other night, brought it over to me, said "hat!" in her most imperious tone, and wore it until bedtime.  She even cried when I took it off of her to put her to bed.  So this Halloween, unlike the last when she was a headless monkey, she may actually wear all the parts of her costume.  And then, friends, she will ROAR!
