Nice Work If You Can Get It






Miss Mimi hatched a plan.

Last week we wandered into a tiny toy store while we were running errands.
In this toy store was a toy version of baby Zelda.

When we have been traveling this summer Mimi wept nightly for Baby Zelda(the real dog).
Her thought was that she would have this Zelda by proxy that could join her on her out of town adventures.

This fake Zelda was twenty dollars and I explained to her that she would have to earn the money to buy her.

With much spunk and sticktoitiveness she cleaned up after Zelda in the yard,did extra chores around the house and this morning she earned her last three dollars washing Daddy's car.

The last picture is of Mimi with the real Zelda on a well deserved break from toiling.
Next to her in the hammock is a cardboard dog bed she made. The bed is lined in fancy fabric and has a handmade pillow.

Jie Jie took her to the toy store where she made her purchase of the faux Baby Zelda.

The very first shot is of Mimi parking her car in the "parking garage" with her new baby in tow.
