hello dearies, would you like your tarot read?
The deck has been shuffled and cut. I choose a card from the deck to stand for you
this is the card I have chosen to stand for you.
It is the High Priestess. The person this describes can keep a secret. You know, but you don't tell. You have strong intuition and are mistress/master of your own destiny. Do you accept this card to be you? (I was always chosen as the High Priestess when old Mrs. Selle would read my tarot in high school.)
I spread the cards to read them . . . the past, then the present reality (as you feel it to be, not necessarily reality), the immediate future, and the long term future
This one is only included because mom loves my eyelashes.
And my toes. I had to dig out my Ezmerelda doll (from Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame) to show mom that I did not need to wear shoes for this production. Ezmerelda is most definitely toes OUT. Even if it meant I had to ride in the wagon across the yard 'cause I'm not a fan of the spikey dried out grass between these toes.
And after the tarot has been read, every true Gypsy dances. Feel free to throw coins.
Great set as always, your daughter is getting so grown up looking, I bet she was thrilled to be the sole object of your attention for a least a brief time. She is beautiful and really knows how to play to the camera!
I've been hoodwinked!
lol, yup, girls are always trouble
I like 1b
I'd like it better if it had her feet in it, but I didn't get the expression / eye contact in the ones where I got the feet. Bummer. :/
I bet she was thrilled to be the sole object of your attention for a least a brief time
We definitely had fun with this set; she loved helping design the look with me; she likes that part much better than the modeling. She got 99% of mom's attention but that pesky little brother of hers was still strapped to mom's front in a baby carrier as I took pictures. She'd much rather I put him down. lol
And I'm not in the least bit biased but I think she's utterly beautiful. lol
Does she have the new card, the Deuce of Flukes? ("Beware of time, space, matter, and energy.")
Alas, she does not. I bought these cards from a garage sale in 1989. Gosh I'm old. And a pack rat. lol
lol sorry Ernie, I'm in a bit of a fog of newborn-baby sleep deprivation. Riiight over my head. Zoom. lol
There's such a gracefulness about her.
It's funny you should say that, she asks me all the time "is this graceful?" as she tippy toes across the room. I'll be sure to let her know you think she's graceful; that will totally make her smile. And if she enjoys this maybe, just maybe, the next time I book her a $35 session with a shetland pony she will let me dress her up in princess garb rather than giving me the stink eye and snarling "this is NOT time for posing" at me. Not that she's spoiled or anything. lol
I bet you let her read Harry Potter too, DON'T YOU??
lol Should I hang my head in shame?
Although . . . my nephew's daycare found out he liked the Harry Potter books and (without consulting his parents) decided to have him lay down on the bed & then the daycare lady & all the other kids put a hand on him and prayed aloud that he would be delivered from the evils of the series. The poor child was so freaked out he didn't crack anything but a textbook for nearly 2 years after the experience.
Thanks for the nice comments! She had a lot of fun helping create her look. My heart is going to break when she doesn't want to do this kind of thing with her old mom anymore!
