A Tale of Two Sisters

The old and the new.






I am old and my daughter is new. My daughters are both newer than I but Mimi is my testament that a new kid is different with an old parent.
Toys, are a great example of my change from a thirty year old mother to a forty five year old one.

When Jie Jie was five, it was all traditional toys.... wood preferably, no indication of style, ethnicity, or specific functions.
When Jie Jie was five she wanted a bear that she could write on with a marker.
I gave her a kit with which she could have her own restaurant, and this dollhouse, all made of wood.
Mimi has now intermingled some of her Christmas presents and her own style into a tiny Moxie girl town.
