Full of Surprises


Now, would you just look at this sweet face.

You'd never guess this little doll would wedge her bare leg in between the back slats of a wooden chair at the library, now would you? Nor would you guess that globs of lotion from the librarian might loosen, but not free that little appendage.

And you certainly wouldn't imagine that the nice men from the city public works department would come take a look and have to break out the hack saw and set to work on the chair just to free the dear.

No, you wouldn't think it. But sometimes the days are full of surprises.

  6. I'm sure it was traumatic for her, but the re-telling is so funny for us! These are the memories childhood is made of.
