What are these princesses of which you speak?

I had the cutest conversation with a little girl at Evan's daycare.

She had a rose painted on each cheek and was daintily holding up her frothy little princess gown as she made her way down the stairs.

"I looove princesses," she said. "And I really love ponies. But unicorns are my favourite."

"I bet you love rainbows too...," I said.

She gasped. "How did you know I love rainbows?"

Just a wild, crazy guess ...

A few days later, I came across her in the cubby room getting ready to go home. She was holding a stuffed unicorn. I asked her its name. Inevitably, she said, "Princess".
