Dinner is served...

My Mom, the dreamer, started the fairy business at her house.  She has real houses, fairies, lights, and this magical door.  The kids are captivated by the whole deal...to be honest, me too.  My Mom taught us to read, read, read, and to dream big.  Reading can take you places you never even imagined.  She has definitely continued that in her grandchildren.  Thanks Mom! 

After our last visit, I get some pictures in my email. One is a scene my Dad discovered outside, the day after we had left.  I have always found such humor in creative play scenes left around our house by Ava, and this one didn't disappoint...I'm still chuckling as I write this. 


In case you are looking at this squinting, wondering, what is that, well, it's fairy dolls lined up for dinner.  Each was given a roma tomato.  Quite appropriate seeing as they live in my Italian Mother's yard.

What a creative childhood you must have had, Francesca! You are very very lucky and Ava is as well, to have these things passed on to her. This is seriously ... is there a less cliche word for, 'cool'? ;)
