Dear Jane,
Today you woke up ever so happy. We snuggled and then I got you dressed. Once dressed I realized that I had made the most perfect headband to match your outfit! (coincidence? I think not.)!! So then we accessorized. You look fabulous! So of course I took 10,000 pictures. So fun!
(I will someday post more about headbands...)
Storytime:
Once upon a time I received my very first cabbage patch doll. Oh. My. Gosh. Since then I have looooooved cabbage patch dolls. (I only ever owned 3. A regular one. A boy one. And a crimp and curl one. Where are they now? No clue. I automatically blame Aunt Derra though.)
As an adult I've been known to go down the doll aisle looking for a brown haired, blue eyed, cabbage patch doll. (My regular one had red hair (?!?!). The boy was bald. And the crimp and curl one had dark blonde/light brown hair)
The boy cabbage patch doll's name was Christopher. The crimp and curl's name was Jillian. Did they have middle names? I'm sure. But I can't for the life of me remember them. Now, my very first cabbage patch doll... She was special. And yes, I remember her middle name. Her name was Pearly Myrtle. She was my favorite.
That is until now.
Because on November 12, 2012 I was given the cutest most specialist brown haired blue eyed cabbage patch doll. We named you Jane Suzanne.
But I will occasionally refer to you as Pearly.
I will most likely crimp your hair at some point in your blessed life.
And I will never have to hand you down to Aunt Derra.
I love you sweet one.
Love, mommy
P.S. Your fingernails are killing me!
In the pictures you can see the cutest model modeling my headbands but clearly we don't always coordinate headband and outfit.
