haha i love this. ami is french for friend also . that's very cool, i think, that you still have one. mine has all left, i've even spent time in the forest trying to get mine back.

i have the distinct memory of blocking them, my dad thought it would be funny to say, "oh i just saw coco run across the floor." he meant no harm, he just wanted to play too, but at that moment i realized my family didnt believe me, because i knew forest elves don't come in the house.. lol. and it was like a shift in consciousness happened, the room spun a bit. and i wish the story had a different ending like that i'd been stronger in my beliefs and not let their reality marr me.
