Over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, I had the chance to watch the movie Frozen... twice. Although I always enjoy a musical, animated movie, I know part of the reason I liked this one so much was because it made me think of Cindy.
First of all, the main characters are sisters (named Elsa and Anna), and the movie has a touching message about sisterly love. There are some really sweet scenes of the sisters as kids, and some very poignant scenes when they're older. Throughout the movie, both sisters are seen with different, braided hairstyles that would make Cindy proud, and that she probably would have tried recreating on herself or on one of us.
One of the sidekick characters is a snowman named Olaf; and I can just picture Cindy making the perfect mini model of him out of clay.
Then there are the songs. We downloaded the soundtrack as soon as we got home and haven't stopped singing yet. Idina Menzel provides the voice for Elsa, so there have undoubtedly already been countless times that Cyn Cyn, Ava and I have belted out lines from the songs. I have images in my head of Cindy singing along to the songs too, just like we did with our favorite songs from Rent.
So I hope you like the movie as much as my girls and I do. And when you find yourself singing along to the songs, please think of it as a little tribute to Cyn... and while you're singing, don't hold back, just let it go.
