<p>This picture (William Bouguereau’s <em>The Storybook)</em>&nbsp; hangs over the girls’ day/trundle bed which they share.&nbsp; My four-yr-old thinks it’s a painting of her.&nbsp; I’m not one to lie to my children but when a two-yr-old thinks it’s a painting of herself and it’s such a sweet impression, you just smile and say, &quot;It sure does look like you&quot; as you hang it on the wall. By the time the two-yr-old is four, it’s hard to retract. As you can see, the room has a modernized Pooh Bear amist touches of antiquity.</p>

<p>The tiger was a gift from Starr’s godfather.&nbsp; Starr so loved Parian’s tiger when we visited him that, in true beloved<a href=”http://www.crocodilehunter.com/”> Crocodile Hunter </a>fashion, he searched around until he wrestled up one to give her.&nbsp; </p>
