Is there anything that reminds you girls -of a certain age- of your childhood more than Raggedy Ann?

My constant companion from about age 6, she was filthy even thru many washes, had heart surgery when a neighbor dog got her and shook her stuffings out, and went with me when I went to an all girls boarding school. I gave her away to a mentor in my freshman year. I do hope Deb still has her.

Everytime I go to Sara and Barney’s house, I look for their Raggedy Ann, who is always sitting in the window sun. A welcome sign. Thanks for feeding me -body and soul-this weekend guys!
