I't s only about 4 days till Christmas

Another Christmas memory. When I was in first grade I was sick with the Chicken Pox at Christmas and I remember getting a paper doll with real hair on it. (Well it may have been fake hair)

My Mom had put a perminent in my hair and cut my bangs straight accross. I also had glasses in the first grade. So this is sort of what I looked like with my paper doll. I know it's not the only gift I got, but it's the one I remember.

I always especially liked paperdolls. Maybe because you could store them in a small box under the bed and take them places. They were great for making up stories.
