So Happy 79th Birthday; Dame Julie Andrews and thank you so very much for making my childhood so magical with the wonderful movies you partook in.


Magical Childhoods

October 1st had come again; all four of the Castle kids were taking a day off from their busy lives. They had started the morning off with the Mary Poppins short film The Cat that looked at the King when their parents had left for their latest murder case. They would spend the day reliving their childhood with some of Dame Julie Andrews' most memorable movies as their way of celebrating the actress' 80th birthday.

After the Mary Poppins short film it only seemed right to transition over to Mary Poppins itself.

"I've always wanted a nanny like Mary Poppins." Carter admitted as Julie Andrews arrived at the Banks' house in the movie.

Before the Castle kids on the living room table was their vast array of sugar for when they watched this Disney classic.

"We all wanted her as a nanny; Cart." Riley chimed in.

The Castle kids had been completely awed by Julie Andrews since they had seen Mary Poppins when they were ten and five years of age respectively.

"Well Dad made our childhood pretty magical." Alexis said.

The triplets recalled the countless laser tag games and the other fun stuff they had done with their dad over the years when it was just the five of them.

"Some things never change." Delilah said as her father's disdain for paperwork popped into her mind.

Hours later as their parents came home from another day at the 12th; the Castle kids were climbing every mountain and relearning "Do-Re-Mi" from one of the world's best actresses.

"It's a shame she can't sing like that anymore. She had one hell of a voice back then." Martha said.

Martha had joined her grandkids when they had put The Sound of Music in the DVD player.

"Very true; mother."

The aroma of burritos and other dishes from Chipotle caught the noses of Alexis and her siblings.

"We picked dinner up on the way home. I hope Chipotle is okay."

"Its more than okay; Mom." Riley said as the movie was paused.

After every had what they wanted from the dinner that Castle and Beckett brought home; the family of seven resumed the movie.
