A doll's life 32609

Here is how I found the children today.

It's funny, I don't know when this all happens. I show up in her room and BAM a whole new scene.

So cute.



The pudgy pointing hand is real.

This morning I found myself in one of her 'scenes'. I woke up with Ruby tucked under my arm in a very cuddly manner (she was nice and snug) and Sarah and Jane in bed beside me under the covers. We were all laying still, warm and cozy.

I realized that I had been one of her dolls. She had arranged me as she does her dolls.

A dolls life



Here is how I found my daughter's "children" today.

They were sitting quietly, as if I didn't hear them scurry back and freeze in their places.

Jane, Sarah and Lucinda.

Well, Lucinda is actually named Jillian but I think she should be named Lucinda after one of the dolls in Beatrix Potter's A Tale of Two Bad Mice.

What do you think?

A very close likeness...right?

Isn't Jane the absolute 'little sister' here? She has those little bright eyes, excited about everything. She is so cute.

Sarah is much older and wiser.
At least she appears to be.

I like the details here. She always has someone with their arm around someone. Sarah usually is the most motherly, I suppose because she is the tallest.

Perhaps she is consoling Jillian (Lucinda) about her hair loss.

Ruby is the golden child. She sleeps with my daughter every night. Even though this looks like abuse, it's really 'the special treatment' to be stuffed face down in the bed sheets.
