Things We Keep | Come, Lelee Lelee

i don’t really collect things.  i just seem to keep the same kinds of things.

I don’t know why I like them.  Or why I get goofy and call them Lelees.  But, I kinda like elephants.  I’m liking them enough to want keep some around.

The first elephants I remember buying are in AllHailsQueenMommy’s living room.  It was a family of 4.  Mother and children.  I bought them from a guy selling his wares at the base of the Eiffel Tower.  It was the last night of spring break and they caught my attention.  Wooden Lelees carved by hand.  I’ll show them to you next time I head home.

This one↑.  I think I’m going to want to take with me whenever I move.  I had the choice of two apartments in my building.  They were right across from each other.  The door knocker chose for me.

It’s still early going for me and the elephants.  I like the idea of collecting.  I just don’t know if I’m cut out for the work of it.  Maybe, I’ll just let myself think it’s random when I notice multiples of anything.

Are you a random keeper or do you passionately collect?
