Current Photo Friday theme: My Baby
The doll in the back, Betsy Wetsy, is the one I’ve had longest, probably since I was four or five.
When I was around seven, I asked for and got a doll like the baby Betsy’s holding. That doll was later stolen by a neighborhood kid.
When I was in graduate school, my mother showed up at my house unexpectedly. She’d found the baby doll in this photo that was so much like my stolen baby that she got it for me.
I could never have been too old for a baby doll from my mother.
My brother and my mother were all about cabbage patch kids.
My brother also developed an affection for “My Little Pony.” So, keep that glitter glue gun away!
Me, Star Wars, bikes, cars, train sets, lego…
You are much younger than I, judging by your toys. Do you still have much of your stuff from childhood?
No. I have a ceramic Tootle train and a wacky word book I won at a Bingo game when I was about 7 years old. But, I haven’t gone through my storage bins along memory lane yet.
