Sissy Annie, I enjoyed your post and the lovely photos! You are a wonderful mommy to your dollies! I love the cute outfits and the darling pajama sets!
ReplyDeleteSissy Annie, this reminds me of when I was about 5 years old and really into all my dolls! Love the pics of you holding your dollies! I can tell you love being a sweet little girl!
ReplyDeleteIt's truly precious to quietly watch how sissy plays with her dollies. She is not restrained or inhibited, in the least, from showing how childish and juvenile she truly is. She accumulates so much joy and happiness from playtime with her dollies.
ReplyDeleteThat's so darling. I love pics where sissy is holding her dolly tight in her arms to protect her.
