bonsoir mes amis

well i guess i took a good and long weekend. it was heaven and now i’m back in full swing, getting back to my fighting weight! just wanted to share a thanksgiving yin and yang moment with you…these you may know are twin my nieces…the bed was my mom’s then mine, then my goddaughter, Juliette’s who’s 12. now it’s been passed once again to these two supernannys…but new polly pockets’ townhouse proved much more interesting!

Your scolling down, thinking what sweet girls, wonder if it’s Thanksgiving, and then the comment on the bed, a tear weld up, as a mother of seven(Yes, 7) how I truly miss them being small and playing together. Dressing them alike, playing with my Mother’s old toys. Thanks so much for that memory returned.

What absolutely beautiful children! And, the little dresses and the Victorian backdrop are stunning! As a collector of things heirloomed, I think the doll bed is wonderful. I have many old toys and dolls that belonged to my great grandmother and grandmother. Glad I stumbled on your blog- lovely!!
