Her name was Kerry Elisabet and she had chocolate brown eyes and round cheeks.
Her yarn hair was permanently styled in pigtails.
I dressed her and pretended she was real.
While I cradled her and spooned pretend baby food into her mouth, I would think:
When I grow up, this is the kind of baby I will have.
THe reason i never had a child, is because my favorites were Garbage Pail Kids. Could you imagine???
ReplyDeleteOh, so sweet. And she is such a lovely little girl. Your wish came true. And a ha ha to gamizone!
ReplyDeleteOh, my, GamizOne! I'm frightened by the very thought... The only one I had was Richie Retch and that alone gives me parenting nightmares.
ReplyDeleteThanks for always leaving kind words, N. Miss you!
