Reminisces

I was thinking today how I would have loved being a girly girl if I was allowed.  I wanted to have dolls and tea sets.  I remember that I did have a Dawn doll which I absolutely loved and a Dawn doll colorform set when I was 3.  I also vaguely remember my older brother trying to get me to play with my toy cars and trucks more, but I was not really interested in them.  When my younger brother came along, I was forced to play with more male oriented toys.  I did prefer floral printed sheets and blankets which my younger brother was forced to accept.
