Sweet story about a doll
Comments (10)I remember when they came out; I used to shop with an elderly lady that collected them. I believe Kirsten was the 1st doll she bought. I don't go to the site much; but I know she's a retired doll. As someone who loves & collects dolls; I wish they would lend her out where they track her. My friend & I used to sew for AG; back before others did. We used to make decent money at craft shows. I have a box of clothes left that I made probably 15 years ago. I'll see if my library has something similar; maybe I'll donate some clothes. Some of you may remember the little 3 year old Chiari girl I post about; every time the AG has a contest on FB we try to win her a doll; she sees the dolly on her moms screen & says "I'd really love to love her" I wish I had money to buy her one. We found that Target & Walmart have the cheaper version; mom almost didn't have Christmas; I had clothes picked out; was going to send to go along with the doll when mom said Christmas isn't happening this year. I was on my way to Walmart Christmas Eve when her mom texted me that she's on her way there too to buy the cheap dolly; someone had given her enough money to buy it; as well as 1 gift for her little brother. The kids had a Christmas miracled after all. I'm glad because for some reason this little girl believes in Santa; her mom never told her about Santa. I kicked myself for not sending the clothes; but she has them now. One day; I hope she's able to have a real dolly. *Kirsten Larson was one of the first three Historical Characters of the American Girl Dolls, representing the Pioneer Era. Kirsten was released in 1986 along with Samantha Parkington and Molly McIntire. American Girl started sending out letters in fall 2009 stating that they would archive Kirsten Larson's entire collection; the doll and her collection would no longer be available for purchase online, at stores, or through catalogs with the exception of books and the mini doll. Official archiving was on January 1, 2010. Here is a link that might be useful: Kirsten Larson This post was edited by roselvr on Thu, Jan 24, 13 at 8:13...See MoreA sweet little story...
Comments (20)Finn did SO great yesterday. He's so brave. Watching your baby go limp (with anesthesia) is terrifying. But, we got some good news. His severe inflammation is down to mild, which means his current meds are working, which means he won't be moved to the "heavy hitter" meds (immunosuppressants). He does have a fistula and will probably need minor surgery, but that's further down the road. He had a tough time with recovery and was in a lot of pain right up until dinner time (procedure was at 10:00), but when he snapped out of it he SNAPPED OUT OF IT! He was up running around with his brother, eating, etc. He even wanted to go to school today. I'm so proud of him it makes my heart ache....See MoreSweet dog story, get your kleenex

Comments (11)I’m still snickering about the excellent phrase preschool bacchanalia. It reminds me of another great line from my newspaper. There was a story about the local game commission rescuing a kangaroo from a lady who was collecting/hoarding animals. She sued to find out where they were keeping it, which they didn’t want her to know because she had stolen back other animals removed from her custody. Anyhoo, the paper wrote that the court ruled the kangaroo “will remain in the marsupial equivalent of the Witness Protection Program.” 😆...See More- 3 years agolast modified: 3 years ago
