Me!
This is the most useless object I own. It serves no purpose, just hangs on the wall in my bedroom. I know, completely inane.
Cute story behind it though, so I will share! October, 2009: My friend Tiffany called to see if I wanted to hit the last day of some local festival that was close to her apartment. So my son and I met up with Tiffany and her son to close out the festival. Of course there were rigged carnival games and my son begged me to play one, so I relented. He didn't win (seeing as how they are all rigged and whatnot) and he was so upset. He pouted and said to me "But Mommy, I wanted to win so I could get you the princess crown so you could be pretty...". The guy working the booth either had a heart and thought it was sweet, or else didn't care because it was towards the end of the whole deal, told my son to pick one out and give it to his mom. Needless to say, he was happy he could give me my princess crown and tell everyone how he "won" it for me.
So, there it is. My pretty, pretty princess crown. I'm 32 and have absolutely NO need for this thing whatsoever, but I treasure it. It's a happy memory!
