Our Little House on the Prairie Girl

Yes, her other name is 'Laura'.

Yes, she is wearing a homemade bonnet (Thank you SO much, Mrs. Henderson!)

Yes, this article of clothing has been worn with every outfit to keep the sun off her face, every. single. day. for a week.

Yes, she is the cutest prairie girl we know.

Definitely a recommended read for all the little girls out there...the entire series of Little House on the Prairie.  But be warned your girl might desire to wear a bonnet.  :)

If you want great Books on CD then buy these and I think you will LOVE them...you and the kids!  They have been awesome. We haven't listened to much else except these in the car.  Owen and Katie have both enjoyed this immensely! Thanks Bee for telling me about them!

They are from Radio Theatre of Focus on the Family.  I found Amazon has them the cheapest.
