We have come a long way here at the “orphanage” since Thumbelina was a lone little girl. There is always someone to play with, and most have been reunited with siblings and cousins. There are lots of books and toys, and plenty of space if you need a quiet moment to yourself.

In fact I started calling it an orphanage jokingly, as the collection of these little kids grew. Now I hope it seems very much like a home where no one need to miss anything. This is my happy place.
