I am working it out here:
Dear Mrs. Murphy,
I think that I can give you an idea of Mimi. I think an example of who she is could be her first grade year with Ms. Simon.
Ms. Simon had a huge influence on Mimi. Mimi proudly credits Ms Simon for teaching her how to read.
Mimi, at the beginning of her first grade year decided to ditch the name Mimi(five years in) to be called Mary.
Mimi's
true name is Mary Margaret Yu Bao Sipes. This is a very large name to carry but she was named
for many Mary's and Margaret's and Mary Margaret's on both sides of our
family.Yu Bao is her given Chinese name.
So in her first grade year she decided to be Mary....her assignments,
folders , labels signed Mary.She wouldn't respond unless we used Mary.
Burton followed suit, but the family and friends were kind of slow to adjust, tried as we might , we couldn't make the jump.
The general public would say,"She's a Mimi, it's so hard to imagine it any other way ."
Mimi kept on being Mary for the school year and then eventually, with some hesitation, eased back in to her Mimi brand.
Mimi is strong, and stalwart . She is self reliant, but also cares a great deal about
what is thought of her. Perfectionism keeps her from trying some things.
She doesn't like being told how beautiful she is.
When she stays in hotels, she immediately calls housekeeping and orders more towels and a wake up call.

She tries to be in the background. Being in that place, she listens and takes in everything and keeps it in the back of her mind for future use.
Mimi
loves routine and at times can be cynical. She is extremely agile, centered and
artistic. She loves painting, pottery, sewing and has a definite illustrative style.
Mimi loves noodles, rice, eggs and fish
Mimi claims to not be a reader, but adores Archie comic books.
Mimi is resourceful. We often joke that she could easily be the winner on "Survivor". She has a innate sense of direction.

Mimi is very inquisitive and wants to be told the truth. She is a homebody.
She loves music, mostly Adele, some Gershwin and a bit of Bieber thrown in.
She loves to be scared. She often jumps out from closets and behind doors to catch us off guard.
If she needs something, she will tell you. She has beautiful manners.
Mimi studies ballet and gymnastics.
She has a beloved dog named Zelda.
She wants to be a peer pal.
She is glorious.
