My eldest, da Boo, is quite an interesting girl. When relatives ask what she likes, I say she has strange tastes but she's pretty easy to please. She wears sparkly shirts while hunting for bugs, invites Lego robot creations to her tea parties, and will read anything she gets her hands on (she even read my Twilight "graphic novel").
One thing she's asked Santa for this year is an amulet that will let her turn into an animal. In preparation for her new abilities, she's been practicing.
Here, she sports a tail. It's really the faux fur trim that unzips from her coat hood. But to her, it's an encounter with the wild and magical, as she anticipates roaming the hills as a wolf. Who else would have thought of that? Well, maybe me when I was her age. Sad to admit it but my dorkiness took root in my early years.
Even with all her quirks, she's still pretty wonderful. In fact, her quirks and wild imagination make me love her all the more! And really, how could I not?

So cute! What a grand imagination.
I think an active imagination is critical to really making it in this world today. She is a cutie and I like the way she thinks. Hope it is an amazing Christmas for all of you.
There was a Strange Addiction show about a girl who had to wear a tail everywhere (she was 25), and couldn't stop. I'm sure that totally won't happen to her.
I love a kid with a good imagination!!
That is so adorable. I hope she gets her Christmas wish...
Sooo cute! :) I love kids and their imaginations!
That is so awesome. She's way more clever than I am, that is for sure.
