The Best Loved Doll

Lately I’ve been remembering things from my childhood. One of those memories is a book I used to check-out from the library over and over. I never seemed to grow tired of this sweet story.

So just the other day, nearly 40 years later, I clicked on google to try and find it. I was not disappointed. Amazon has it . . . because Amazon has everything—sweet!

I just received The Best Loved Doll in the mail and within moments I was transported back in time. I just love this little book.

Oh The Drama!

Nicholas (age 3): Mom, Can I go to Grandma's?

Me: Not now Nicholas. Maybe later.

Nicholas: But Mom! I REALLY MISS my grandma!

Me: Not now Nicholas. Maybe later.

Nicholas: But Mom! My grandma REALLY MISSES me!

Me: Not now Nicholas. Maybe later.

Nicholas: Mom! You're breaking my heart!
