Watched the little mermaid with my step daughter and loved it!

Soooo many things rush through my mind when I think of Disney movies. But this particular one I’ve been anticipating for a whole year! I can’t believe I actually got to watch it and my husband and step daughter(she’s 8 btw) took me to go see it. I felt like a whole a$$ child. There was a childlike glimmer in my eyes and I was so so so ecstatic as soon as I entered the theater and heard the Disney logo music I started to jump up and down like a child. I think my step daughter was just as excited even though had already seen it the week before with her mom. One thing she kept saying was “you’re gonna love this movie I promise,” and I had zero doubts about it. I’ve never been so excited in my whole life since I saw the cartoon movie at daycare when I was only 6. You can gauge my age by that. That was about 1993. But it was a magical experience to say the least. Halle Bailey was so, what’s the word, Enigmatic! Superb! Relatable! Beautiful! And the director made the experience for both adults and children, Magical! I was spell bound. So happy they chose her! And for the poop heads that don’t like her, I have no words for you. Maybe get a life? Lol and stop criticizing what people do. It’s sad that you’re hell bent on making it about yourself and race, and how and what the little mermaid “should look like”. Halle was just marvelous. That infectious smile, that cute dimple on her cheek, that glimmer in her eyes, the shine on her skin. She was just so graceful and innocent. She made us feel that she is confidently and unapologetically, Ariel. Despite the backlash she received, I feel this gal is going to go a long way in her career. I will always remember her as our cute Little mermaid.
