Little My

Rainy summer day. Little Cristal, in her red polka-dotted dress, shoulder-dances to the radio.

My high blond pigtails bounce around my head as I click the final piece into a puzzle I've done a hundred times before. Yet, I still enjoy it just as much as the first time.

I dash into my older sister's room and, after a quick bout of bickering, skip happily back to the living room.

It’s time to join my fictional spirit twin, Little My, for an adventure to Moominland.

I warble along to the theme song as loudly as my little throat allows.

Notes: Unfortunately, all my childhood photos are at my parents' house, and I just haven't had a chance to go there. But the girl in the picture looks unbelievably similar to me as a child – especially the hair, since this was my (or rather, my mother’s) go-to hairstyle throughout my childhood.

And if anyone's wondering how The Moomins theme song (aka the soundtrack of my childhood) sounds like in Estonian, here it is:
