Who doesn't love Mary Poppins? She is so magical and delightful with a spoonful of sugar. She brings out the best in everyone and always has a smile on her face. I think we all wish we had a Mary Poppins to call on every now and again or a fairy godmother like Cinderella would even be nice. I'll take either at this point.
Today was a rough day. It's been a rough week actually. There have been some high points but I can think of more low points right now than anything else. This is where Mary Poppins would come swooping down and have her magic descend upon my house to tidy it up all the while singing "Spoonful of Sugar". If I was really techie like Randy I would be able to put in a link to the song. But he isn't here right now as his flight home tonight got canceled. Such is my life this week. Nothing is really going how I would like it to go. Maybe if I keep singing Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious I might always sound precocious too. I mean really, who didn't like Mary Poppins. I have such fond memories of this delightful musical. Just saying the name, "Mary Poppins" puts a smile on my face and warm fuzzies in my tummy.
Not too long ago I did get to share this wonderful show with my kids and Randy who had never seen the whole thing. I was just utterly shocked that my own husband who can recite random movie lines had never seen all of Mary Poppins. I'm not even sure if he has seen all of "The Sound of Music". Don't worry, all in due time it will be introduced into my house. This are by far the Disney classics that really do stand the test of time. Ones I can watch over and over again. I'm waiting for Disney to re-release these on Blu-ray knowing full well that my generation will buy them to pass along the memories to our kids. Disney is smart like that. Maybe even Ken Jennings smart.
Maybe if I play my cards right I will get to go see this fantastic musical at the lovely Fox Theatre in Atlanta.
