Snowman
Today the snow has gone ,it rains and sometimes the sun carefully shows her existence.
When I cleaned the questbedroom ,formerly owned by child #2, i discovered him again ,THE Snowmandoll .
Child #2 loves reading the book the Snowman written by Raymond Briggs ,the cartoon and later a movie .
I found the doll while the child was already a young man but i could not resist buying him and i gave it as a surprise at Santaclausevening .Snowman remained ,son left the nest .

My Pullipdoll Mouche and her friend
Mormeltje ,beloved since the 60ties (1900)
A while ago i was at the 2nd hand store in our village and in a trunk filled up with nowadays pluche i immediately recognized her ...... MORMELTJE .
She brought me way back in my memories ,i think 45 years ago !
Mormel was a design of a knitted troll and placed in the long gone magazine Prinses (Dutch ) .
Each 14 days there has been added a new pattern for making her clothes .
OOOO ,how i loved her but.... never got one .
My both grandmothers ,always knitting socks ,didn t feel the need to surprise me with this little creature .
My best girlfriend got one on her birthday and growing up in a family of 13 children she was able to share easely ,lucky me !
We played with Mormel ,made a bed for her and telling her stories ,a very lovely memory .
I never forgot Mormel and i tried to find her pattern when i had my own children but ...no succes.
Now .... i got her pattern ,received from a dear friend who is born in the same year as me and we share the love for Mormel .
The old Mormel i got for 10 cent but her value for me is un payable
