What's Old Is New Again

Poor Mila.

She is so very loved, and yet she never seems to get anything. When Alexis was her age, every trip to the store seemingly ended in some new fun thing. But now there's no need for new fun things because all of the old fun things are piled in our basement and garage.

There are so many piles of things that should have been discarded years ago.

But those things weren't discarded. That leads to a fun game we play where something comes out of storage, Mila loves it with all of her heart, and The Hoarder gloats. There is much gloating happening because things like this little walker/ride-on toy were hiding in the midst of the piles.

Mila spent HOURS this past weekend walking all around the patio. It's very fun and exciting to discover that there are toys that will aid in your quest to walk. No matter that those toys are missing stickers and are old -- THEY'RE SUPER FUN. Because, you know, it's super fun to cruise around and destroy everything.

It's also super fun to sit on the toy.

So I guess the kid will forgive us for not buying her a bunch of new things. Maybe.
