New Playmobil Fairies Range – Christmas Gift Guide
My 7yr old daughter is a small paradox – she loves to wear a frou-frou skirt, have her her long and free, and desperately wants to paint her nails (yeah, like I let THAT happen…).

I have a couple of precious tapes of my sister and I singing as she practiced her guitar, and the mix tapes… Oh, the memories that are spooled onto those mix tapes! But...
