I tried to rouse Alice this morning, but she was resistant. I outsourced the waking to one of Alice’s princess plush toys, which tried to wake her up with magical kisses. Alice didn’t like this at all, because Dad is not allowed to play at being any of Alice’s princess toys — “Dad, how many times have I told you, you can’t be a princess”. I asked Alice later at breakfast, and it turns out that Mom has general permission to play at being a princess toy.
