‘Oh, what a good idea! A yellow one like we were, when […]

Merrie Sunshine is thrillled. Her auntie found some embroidered ribbon in the second hand store:
It looks just like her, well a little bit like her, well, kind of like her, if she was brave enough to ride a horse…..

Anyhow, Merrie Sunshine is very excited, because […]
