Je t’aime, mais oui, bien sur. Now that I’ve exhausted my conversational French, I’ll tell you in my native tongue that this little guy is tres French. Moulin Roty is an old old favorite of mine – but very very hard to find in the states. They’re high quality, gorgeous colors, and provide a classic European approach to toy design that’s always adorable without resorting to Gund’s blank smiles. One of Birdie’s early favorites is a Moulin Roty bear I’d had at my desk at work for years (after someone neglected him on their return from his purchase at a Paris trade show) – even before I was married. Obviously my daughter has good taste. Well, at least some of the time, she currently loves a very fugly pink and maroon cat sent as a sample from a freelance client. I should have never let her see that thing. Anyway, since it’s Monday morning, and we’ve already spilled rice milk everywhere, dropped all of her cereal on the floor, and splashed water all down my front when trying to clean it up, I think it’s time for something funny. Like Moulin Roty’s Dragonbert Fasolle.
