A few weeks ago my mom gave my boys and I a great gift. For me, it was the gift of nostalgia. It's amazing how one person might view these things as a pile of crappy plastic junk. But these are the old playthings of my brother and I, and so I view them as my memories.
The boys of course viewed them as great "new" toys. No matter their name, they needed a place to stay now in our home.
This dresser has been in every house I have ever lived in and is now in Everett's room even though it no longer holds clothes because I cannot stand to part with it. Now, I am glad for nostalgia of all kinds.
The kind you play with...and the kind that holds the playthings.

How special to see your childhood toys played with by your very own children! I still have my very first pillow case and I love it. I can't use it because it's so tattered, but I love knowing that it's still around. Now you've got me wondering where my Barbie Dream House ended up?!
