I let Hallie stay up late tonight to watch Beauty & The Beast with me. VHS version. Not the fancy digital re-mastered kind. I remember going to see it in the theater with my mom. I'm pretty sure I was seven. Weird circle of events. I still get all giddy when they dance in the ballroom. Hallie's face lit up with the biggest smile, too. Now I have to re-learn the words to the song because she kept asking me to sing "Belle & Beast song".
