We were cleaning out some of my old things and found an unused notebook. Fe exclaimed excitedly:
This will be my journal! She has been keeping the journal now for a week. She shares it with me,
thankfully... The things she writes... getting to see inside her little head... the simple things she values...
it is beyond fascinating.

All her spelling cuteness doesn't translate, unfortunately.

I mean, Meji (pronounced Meyi) Popins? How adorable is that. The original should have been called that.
