One Year Ago Today



My calendar is packed with birthdays and anniversaries today, but its also a sad day. The lady who gave Elle this stroller and Raggedy Ann doll died one year ago today. She never got the chance to meet Elle, but was very anxious and excited that we were adopting a little girl - who would most certainly be in need of these wonderful toys! You are missed Evelyn, but I can assure you that Elle has loved the dolly stroller and that its had plenty of use!

Thanks much, Evelyn!

What a sweet lady! She also gave Martilee Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls. I wonder how many she made in her lifetime? Such precious keepsakes.

This granddaugher misses Grandma G very much and am so happy that she left a little something for Elle. Tell her stories of this special lady and how excited she was for her to join your family. PS, thanks for making me cry M. -Tam
