52Q week 3

Em's question for week 3...

Q - do you believe in fairies?

I think the idea of fairies is fun... one of those magical little things that a child's imagination can run wild with. As a child I was fascinated with the possibility of little creatures around my house that I couldn't see. I remember reading this book... if I could only think of the title...about a boy that found he had little people living in his room and the adventures they had together. It wasn't " The Borrowers" or "The Littles", although it was similar. It was such a magical story. I used to dream and pretend I had little people living in my room. I made little beds out of match boxes and used other items to make tiny little furniture and hid them in my dresser drawers hoping they would be found and used. Don't think they ever were, but just maybe they were and I just never knew... who knows?


I read about these fairy doors that started mysteriously popping up in Ann Arbor a couple years ago. Such a fun, magical use of imagination. I found a few on etsy. Maybe we will have to install one in our home... I have been wanting to, as well as make a fairy garden for the chicklets.
