 My Heather doll, a small Raggedy Ann made by my Mama Graham,
and my big Raggedy Ann.

Thanks everyone for sharing your favorite dolls and doll memories. I had some great laughs from them, especially the stories featuring evil older brothers. I started feeling really nostalgic about my two dolls and wondering what ever happened to them, and then it dawned on me they are both in my cedar chest. Duh! I went and dug them out and was really embarrassed at the sad shape and the dirtiness. At this point, I can't even wash them because I'm afraid they'll fall apart. The feet on my Raggedy Ann are split like that because I always walked her around by holding her in front of me and kicking her feet in unison with mine. I will have to make her some tight fitting booties or something to keep her stuffing from coming out.

See, my Raggedy Ann also had a heart that said "I love you" on her chest. My next-to-me sister and I both got one at the same time, and when she ripped the face on hers I remember she kept trying to pass it off as mine. Or was that our Snoopy dolls? If I have trust issues, I blame you, Libby. :-)
