When CnA was about 5 she was at universal studios in line for the ET show. She was pulled out of line and got to be be in the show! She rode a bike with et in the basket and it flew up into the air and everything!
When CnA was 10 she got to go to a NKOTB concert and get all of their autographs. She doesn't like to tell people but she still sleeps with the shirt they signed
When CnA was on a vacation at Disneyland, she wasn't looking where she was going and ran smack dab into Mickey Mouse's butt. I'm talking the real live character, not a statue. She ended up with a concussion, but park management felt so bad that for the rest of the day she got to skip all the lines on the rides and eat as much free ice cream as she wanted.
When Cna was 6 she got a pink strawberry shortcake bike with rainbow tassels and a basket on the front. She rode it to a jem and holograms concert where they painted her face with triangular pink shadow...and she danced the final number with them.
When Cna was 4, she got a pet monkey named archibald. Sadly, she could only keep him a week (I mean...monkey feces, hello), but her family bequeathed him to a local shelter where she visited him weekly and he always gifted her dandelions which she still has in a scrapbook to this day.
On a junior high field trip to a tv studio CnA got separated from her group. She was starting to get worried, but them she ran into (she didn't concuss herself on his butt, just "ran into") Zack Morris. He took her to the sound stage where they filmed saved by the bell she got to be an extra and MP Gossler himself sent her a copy on an autographed vhs. They remained pen pals for many years.

CnA kept a journal with her two bffs and gave each other secret names while writing about their crushes. They passed it around ala sisterhood of the traveling pants. Oh and during slumber parties they pretended they were fashion models trying on their moms fanciest clothing and taking pictures. Due to the embarrassment, these photos and journals were burned after high school erasing any evidence

Oh and you totally had front row seats to the baseball games and caught a ball hit by A. Rod. He signed it for you after the game and the manager gave you a tour of the dugout and training facilities.

I'm with louiej. This is seriously the sweetest post ever. Maybe it's been an emotional weekend, or maybe I've been huffing too many cleaners while spring cleaning, but I am definitely tearing up at these.

It's like a Hallmark Christmas time special! ALL OF THE FEELINGS!!!

CnA and the local kids built their own tree house in the woods. It had a rope ladder and lots of snacks. They had a secret club where everyone had a nickname. She was Sparkle.
When cna was in the 4th grade, she was at the mall wearing her coolest neon leggings and denim jacket combo and a well dressed man told her she looked fabulous and really made it work. Years later while watching Project runway she realizes that man was Tim Gunn
When CnA was 8 a kitten followed her home and her parents let her keep it, she named it Baileywick, and he became her BFF. She sold lemonade to save enough money for a Care Bears collar and matching leash and took Baileywick for daily walks.

CnA won the high score at the arcade playing PacMan. She got to put her initials on the high score list in the machine and she won a free ice cream sundae. Her initials are still number one on that machine!
