Little Kings and Queens

On the 6th of January, the classroom beside Polo's smelled like yummy pastry. The delicious smell turned out to be slices of the galette des rois that were individually packed in clear plastic bags tied with a ribbon. It seems that the teacher decided to give out slices and play out the local tradition.

Today, I saw a little child from that classroom going home with a crown on his head. Now, I know who got the little child from their galette des rois. There were a handful of children wearing crowns on their heads today. They must be their class' respective kings and queens. They kept their crowns on even after school. Maybe, they feel like royalty today. I'm sure, that they will wear the crown the whole day and act like little kings and queens at home just like my little King Polo, who is very comfortable with wearing the crown.

His face lights up when I say, "your majesty." I was even privileged to try on his crown and be called his queen and princess today. :)
