The check-in clerk asked my mom if we were celebrating anything. My mom said, "Yes, my daughter passing her teaching certification." So we got a bunch of balloons and a photo signed by all the major Disney characters. (Imagine Kirsten's, um, delight.) We also got 4 buttons that say "I'm Celebrating" and have our names written across the top. My name is "Octavia" on this button, which means I may have to explain to Snow White or Cinderella or a friendly college student manning The Matterhorn that actually, I go by "Tavie".

Tavie: "So let's practice, Mom. And what are you celebrating?"

Mom: "My daughter's teaching certification. Now she just needs a principal to hire her."

Kirsten: "Some day my principal will come."
