Felix, it's words like this that make me realize I was shortened in life not knowing you personally, We are cousins and I love you because your words say you are really one of us and now you've made me cry. Love you ,love your words and your Granddaughter is very lucky to have you as a Poppy.

I must admit I down get down to ground level to do anything with Barbies, other than pick them up off the floor, along with their respective outfits strewn everywhere. My daughters are still little more than barbie dolls anyway LOL. Ah to of been a fly on the wall and seen Fee, POPPY, down on the floor messing with the dollies haha.
I wonder what he dressed them in :) smirk smirk. And did they have a car, or a scoot, acutally there is a barbie car out by the fishpond, been parked there for a week or so.
Its all good fun innit, enjoy the time with children, they grow to fast.
I dont have a Grandchild yet, but I do have a JRT to babysit LOL...He's like a baby.

Good one Fee.

"To hear the laughter of her rainbow." This one phrase is the payback of love that is worth all the money in the world. This is beautiful Poppy!
