"True love's kiss"

How deep has the fairy tale bug bitten Evelyn?

She made a new friend, Abby, at the play area in the mall today. The two little girls ran around, chased each other, compared their baby siblings, and climbed in and out of play things. Then, I spotted Evelyn lying on the floor, apparently fake sleeping and paying no mind to her confused new friend who just could not rouse her. Abby shook Evelyn, tickled her until Evelyn was squirming away, and asked her to wake up in the persistent way that only a toddler could master, all to no avail. I knew what Evelyn was waiting for, but I reined in the urge to interfere. I wanted to see what would happen. After a minute or two, just when I was afraid that Abby is going to give up on Evelyn, I saw Evelyn mouthed three words to Abby, "true love's kiss". Right... Just what I thought. Poor Abby was even more troubled. It's time for me and Prince Lauren to step in. All it took was a slobbery kiss from Lauren and the world was righted. There goes princess Evelyn, rescued from some unknown, but definitely wicked sleep enchantment, happily engaged with a real world playmate again.
