La Petite Meeps

Last November, shortly before I left for Paris, I hatched a grand plan ( wild idea). I've been working on a presentation for French students in the upper grades and decided doing one for K-2 students might be fun as well. I asked a dear and talented blog friend in Vermont if she could knit me a Meeps look alike on short order and ........voilà, la Petite Meeps was born... along with 3 other scarves for the trip. I tucked her in my tote, and she had a romp in the new children's area of the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth concourse, and then breezed right through TSA. From time to time, I will share Meeps' amazing adventures in Paris right here.

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

OK good. I was afraid this was an ad for new cheap airlines seats. Good luck with the new adventure !
I'm sure Meeps was enchanted by Paris!
Adorable moment!

What a fun idea. Can't wait to see more of the photos.
Awwww, so cute an idea. :-)
Very cute!
Would the real Meeps approve, that is the question...
Meeps was an excellent traveling companion—she just made the party happen all over town! I'm looking forward to seeing more of her adventures here.
Bonjour Meeps, le petite chat noir!
Elle est adorable!
