genie out of the bottle

After watching "Mary Poppins" and having the idea planted that Papa can make a movie like that, Sevi, in something I can't say I get ALL that often, positively THREW her arms around me, saying "Papa, Papa, can we make a movie like that? Oh, PLEASE Papa PLEASE!" Just as sweet as can be. She imagines that we can actually do it, transport ourselves into a world of animation and magic. I remember feeling the same way. The birth of Escapism! She surely has a taste for it, which drives her that much more in the direction of the arts...or, as in my case, to dreamy distraction. Good and bad all mixed in.
