Welcome to Gaia! ::

The twins agreed it was funny and watched a little bit more. Then went to see what Sonja had picked out. "What did you get Sonja?" Aki asked as he went to see what she had. Yuki followed looking at her pile.

The twins look at the movies and music. Aki says "Oh, you are getting the pirate movie!" He claps his hands with glee.

Yuki said "I don't know what would be good so we will just see your pirate movie." Aki agrees that they would not know what to pick. There was just too much to choose from and they did not know the music or movies. Only what they just saw with the pirates and witches on the TV.

Yuki was playing with the flower Sonja gave her and Aki carried the books they got. They looked at the row of stores. "What other kinds of stores do they have Sonja?" asked Aki.

Aki was trying to be polite and carry the books but they were heavy. "Okay." he said as they looked in the windows of the stores.

The could not imagine needing furniture or more clothes. Sonja had made them so much so they just peeked in the windows to see what kinds of things they had.

When they got to the toy store they looked at the window. There were lots of things there. They never had any toys so they were curious as to what toys were really and what you were suppose to do with them. Aki looked at the cars and saw a police car "Look a police car like the one we saw by our car." Yuki said "Oh look they have animals and a doll that looks like the princess in that book we got."

Aki looked at all of the stuff and got overwhelmed "Wow look at all of the things. Pirate swords like in the movie and lots of kinds of cars. Oh look a fire engine." The had not seen a real one yet so he looked at the toy one and played with the ladder that moved and the siren turned on with flashing lights. Wow it works like a real one!" He was amazed that there were so many things that looked real. He picked up a bear with a little baseball outfit on. "This bear has clothes like we do." he said with a smile.

Yuki picked up a car and played with the wheels. "Look this car looks like Sonja's car and the wheels move." Then she picked up a tiger that was very soft. She cuddles it, "This tiger is so soft."

Then they moved onto the games which they did not know what they were so they moved on looking at things like balls and jump ropes. They knew what the ball was since they had seen one in a book but not the jump rope.

Aki played with some of the cars while the girls went off to another section.

Yuki looked at all of the dolls and bears with little dresses on. "Oh look they are so pretty!" she said as she picked up a princess doll with a white shiny ball gown on. Then she saw a little white fuzzy bear with a pink tutu. It was very cute and soft so she played with that. Then she saw some tea sets and saw the pictures on the box of how a little girl was having a tea party with some bears and dolls. She showed Sonja "Is this what little girls do? The feed the dolls and animals?"

Yuki nodded yes as she looked at the boxes and boxes of dolls and accessories and hobby kits for making jewelry. She was just amazed by the variety of things.

Aki smiled as Sonja came back. Another little boy that was a was there and they were playing with some transformers. The younger boy was showing Aki how to convert the car to a robot. "Look Sonja. A car that turns into a person with armor." He didn't know what a robot was.
