I loved to climg a great big tree with my best friend Becky; we would have our pillows and relax in the huge, double-sided crook of thre tree. I was given 8 foreign dolls by my grandmother after she came home from the World's Fair in Brussles. Wow! That's 51 years ago and I am still collecting. I must have over 200 dolls now. I gave half of them to my daughter 20 years ago. Oh, one more . . . my friend Becky and I used to play Peter Pan and Wendy in our linen closet. We would shut the doors and take turns playing our then-favorite characters, as often as not fall asleep in there while our mothers were frantically looking for us. Gosh, I should have written an entry! Blessings to you, Krissy.
