Fun gifts from Mexico

What a special surprise it was last week when Zoe received her very own Mexican dancing skirt! Our dear friends who live in Mexico City sent this 'big sister' present by way of a friend who was travelling this way.

The best part about the skirt, of course, is how well it spins!

And then for little Maya, her very own beautiful hand stitched shirt!

Too bad she wasn't in the mood for a photo shoot...

Zoe's logic on beauty

in

On a typical day, we are bound to play at least part of one musical soundtrack while we go about our indoor activities. One day last week it was Beauty and the Beast... and people had just been singing about how good looking Gaston was. Often when they sing those words, Zoe makes a funny face and gives it a 'two thumbs down' and then tells me how mean and rude he is. This time, she was quiet... and then said...

Zoe: Belle is the only one who doesn't think Gaston is great.

Me: Yeah, she's the smart one. What is more important? Being kind, or being beautiful?

Zoe: Well, being kind and beautiful. Because you can always be kind and just wear a beautiful dress!
