I'm not sure how I forgot this...My mom made sure I didn't forget.
The girls also each received for Christmas a very special Raggedy Ann. My Aunt Joyce gave me one for my first Christmas, and I loved it. It was my special "doll" for my whole childhood. I literally wore it out. An arm fell off, the face has faded, and the dog chewed off a leg at one point. The above (except the face) was repaired, but currently Raggedy Annie sits atop a shelf in the girls room with only one leg. The other is tucked under her skirt waiting to be sewn on. I hope Natalie and Abigail love their Raggedy Anns just as much. Maybe one day I can get one for their children.
