Mavis Mouse's sailor husband went back out to sea not long after Mavis married him. Since then
she had a baby, and her mother has moved into the big, lonely house to help out. Sometimes Mavis thinks wistfully about her wedding day not so long ago....
 |
| Mavis has pulled her wedding dress out from storage. |
 |
| She pulls it up against her body, remembering that special day. |
 |
| Mavis twirls around... |
 |
| ...and twirls back again. |
 |
She sighs. Now it's back to the kitchen to cook up
more tasty treats. :-) |
 |
Mavis as reflected in the mirror, still holding
her dress. |
Until next time, keep it fun! xo Jennifer
O my...I feel sorry for Mavis who looks so sad and lonely! She is having dreams... and husband is just travelling...
ReplyDeleteIt is so comforting to have some sweets on a day like her's is now!

o, she ad a beautiful dress!!! did you make it? well...life turns to "normal everyday" pretty quickly,,,even in dollhouse! :) :)
ReplyDeleteHi anna, The dress was a gift from Mieke of Petite Victorian Rose blog. Isn't it beautiful? xo Jennifer
DeletePoor Mavis! Being alone with a baby shortly after her marriage is very sad.
ReplyDeleteI wish something very good to happen to make her feel more upbeat.
Hi Jennifer! Very poignant. I'm sure her treats will cheer her up a bit! Mavis can dream and plan for the day her husband returns and they can properly celebrate as a family. I hope! Do you have any story plans for Mavis?
ReplyDeleteKind regards, Brian.
Hi Brian, We'll have to see about the story plans. This was a story I'd wanted to do for a long time. Looks like I might have to do another with a happier ending, though. ;-) xo Jennifer
DeleteOh that dress is so lovely! I feel for Mavis being alone. I hope the treats will cheer her up.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Lisa
It's so nice to have wonderful memories to think back on. Maybe, Mavis and her husband, one day should renew their promises, so they create more wonderful memories.

Hello Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteTell Mavis not to worry, absence makes thee heart grow fonder they say.
Big hug,

I feel sorry for poor lonely Mavis. I hope she gets a surprise visit from her husband soon. The kitchen is a good place to keep one busy. Maybe she should start a hobby.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos!
Hugs, Drora
Her wedding dress is so lovely, Jennifer! If Mavis' husband will come back home she even will love him more after such a long time being alone with her love baby ;)!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Ilona
Sweet photos and cute dress!

Poor Mavis! She reminds me of myself when I just had my first baby! Hubby was far away for many months at a time! I love her room and pretty dress!!! Did you make the dress? It's so cute!

O, poor Mavis... You get married, think you are going to be independent and happy, instead, your mother moves in and your husband moves out...
ReplyDeleteMieke's dress is beautiful and please do continue the story with a happier ending please? :-)
Hope you've recovered from your cold.
Hugs,
Véronique
