I keep reminding myself that a LOT of little girls who go this route turn out to be domestic gurus. I've met many of them. Maria is extremely organized, she enjoys doing domestic chores and even when she doesn't she is much more focused on getting them done and enjoys the sense of accomplishment more than either of her sisters ever have. She is really interested in domestic arts like sewing, knitting, cooking, decorating and other cool stuff. I just worry about her getting too into the "romance" aspect of the princess world and ending up thinking her value is in how she looks. She already worries about that way too much, in my humble opinion. I picked up a card she had made for one of her soccer coaches (she made thank you cards for all three of them WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE, much less my encouragement!) and in tiny letters in the corner she had writtend, "Just so you know, I have a crush on you."
