Life of a Maple

Hi, it’s Millie. I like to read, write stories, make miniatures for my dolls, and to play with my sister. When I'm outside I play basketball and go biking. My favourite colour is pink, my second favourite is yellow. Now, let's get started! I really like our new home. It’s really nice. I like my school and my new friends and our neighbours. My favourite thing is when Mom takes Daisy and I to the park so that Dad can work driving the older residents of town around… well, town. Me in my room! You can sort of see my miniature diorama peeking out in the bottom left side of the picture Daisy always wants to bring her pretend car. She makes Mom and I push her. Sometimes, Mom will take us to the fruit wagon. Mr. Dale owns the fruit wagon. He is very nice and he gives kids fruit for free. Mom and Dad like that because then they don’t have to pay!! ;) Daisy, Mom, and I at Mr Dale's fruit wagon Mom has a part time job for the flower shop. She signed a cont...

Hi! This is my first story-post and so I'm really excited about it. I had made a Valentine's Day Store this past February and never used it much. So, today, while looking at it and wondering what I could do--since Valentine's day was already over months ago--I had a great idea. After all, this idea involves both Valentine's Day and warm weather (it's July!) and so it was perfect. I hope you enjoy reading this story. Let's begin... (By the way, the story is SUPER LONG which was something I never expected so if you don't think you have the time to get through it all, than please, just remember that I will make my other posts way shorter than this one. I just had SO MUCH to write about, and I had so many good ideas that it just came out too long. But I kept it, and added captions to all of the pictures so if you want, you can just look at the pictures and kind of get a feel for the story. If you can't get through the whole thing, my apologies. I promi...

So, sorry for the long wait, everyone! I'm back. I have just returned from a summer vacation (it is now July 9th) and it was very fun, in case you wanted to know. Happy overdue July 4th to all Americans, and happy very overdue July 1st to all Canadians. So, let's get this post started! This post is going to be written by Maple Cat mother, Georgina. Let's begin... (oh, and by the way, I will use different fonts to show that different family members are writing the posts... well, not,  really them , but sort of 😉) (OK... trash that idea... there aren't a lot of fonts anyway, and they mostly look the same) Hi, it's Georgina. Life at the 'House on the Hill' is going great, considering we just moved here from the Sylvanian Town where my husband Theodore had his very own tram business. (he was recently hired to drive the older residents of the Sylvanian Village around to get them around the place.) Millie was booked in a new school, and so that's g...
