In this village, lives a unique young woman named Carly. I bet you’re wondering why Carly was so unique. When Carly popped out of her mother’s womb everyone gasped because, there in front of them was a baby with long blonde hair purple highlights.

Her mother always said that she was a very active child who never stopped playing games. Her mother would recant stories of Carly running around their backyard, playing hide-n-seek with her siblings. Although Carly loved hide-n-seek, her favorite game was makebelieve. Her siblings and her would always pretended that they were at a tea party drinking tea and eating little cucumber sandwiches. They would spend hours prancing around in their beautiful gowns, heals, suits, and makebelieve ties. The backyard became a magical ballroom with birds and bugs and other ballroom guests.
