My daughter likes me to make up stories for her. At bedtime, she often requests I tell her a story about this little girl from West Virginia who grew up without money and without a mom ...
The stories I weave have titles like, "How Lu-Lu learned to decorate her fingernails with charcoal pulled from the mine," and "Why dress shopping once a year with someone who loves you is special," and "How Lu-Lu won the baking contest when all of the other girls were richer and prettier than she was," seem to capture my daughter's pre-teen imagination 100%. She is fascinated by Lu-Lu.
I am attached to this character too and I've decided that she should not grow up.
