Truly Indian

Mira now looks like a proper Indian girl with her silver anklets and a hip chain I got her yesterday from GRT (apart from a pair of baby studs that is pretty microscopic). Until now, you couldnt really make out if she was a boy or a girl when dressed in Ash's hand-me-downs, mostly shorts and t-shirts, and a short hairstyle. Now you can hear her a mile away when she comes jingling her anklets - it has caught her fancy so much that she kept shaking her leg the whole night. The hip chain has 3 small bells too, unlike the Kerala ones which come with a leaf motif for girls and a linga motif for boys.
