When growing older,
needing a happy place-
I'll think of naptime
stroking your porcelain face.

Ok I will admit porcelain dolls totally creep me out, lol, but the point is for a moment I flashed back to my raggedy ann doll, and what a sweet memory.
BUT....those fifteen little words will most likely have me digging in my basement all day looking for her.....so THANKS! lol.
Great job....your the master at these limited word prompts...I cant even do a comment in 15 words. (see?) lol.

whoosh! You did it again. Russell, you are a treasure.
I used to have a porcelain doll...the only doll that
never scared me (lol) I remember she had dimples and
the softest yellow hair. Her eyes were blue and her dress
was pink...I named her Catherine. Thank you for bringing
this memory back. Love, Lane
