All the toys in the world…
…and she plays in a cardboard box. Or I force her to live in one. Whatever.
One plus, though, is she LOVES the camera. Ask her to pose, and she does so . Ask her to smile through her hair, and it’s too cute for words. ask her to act like a growly little urchin child living in a box? And she’s STILL too cute for words, even as she nails the shot…
