From Randy over at Genea-Musings:
it's Saturday Night -
time for more Genealogy Fun!!!
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to:
1) What are some (one or more) of the toys you played with as a child?
2) Share your favorite toy(s) with us in your own blog post, in a comment on this blog post, or in a Facebook message. Please leave a comment on this blog noting where your conjectures are located.
Here's mine:

Here's mine:
There are the toys I remember playing with and the toys I've kept that are important to me, but I don't necessarily remember playing with them.
I had a play refrigerator that I loved to play with. I kept that thing well stocked didn't I?!
I remember playing with my Barbie dolls. I had a case with a fold out "apartment" with two twin beds for Barbie and a friend to sleep. Unfortunately, I didn't keep it and don't have any pictures of it, but I remember spending hours playing with Barbie, her clothes and that apartment.
I remember sitting in the kitchen floor while my mom prepared dinner and playing jacks.
Then there are the toys I have kept:
This doll was given to me by very important person in my life. Mofer. At least that's what I called her. She was my babysitter/nanny when I was little in Augusta. I loved her so much. She loved me so much that when my parents announced we were moving to Florida, she begged my dad to let me stay with her. LOL. I must have played with this doll quite a bit cause she has some worn spots, and those clothes are obviously not what she was originally wearing. There used to be a bottle, and when you would give her water, she would wet her diaper.
I am told this teddy bear was originally my sister's. I don't remember it being given to me or anything. I just remember it always being there. It lived on my bed and I'm betting I slept with it for years.
I was raised as an only child so I probably didn't play with as many toys as some. I mostly read. But there are a few that are provide fun memories and make me smile.
