This prompt weaves in perfectly with my Birthday Month facts and stories. There are several things including my Dolphin blanket I no longer use that was like my safety blanket. Here in this photo are my pink dolls and care bear. In the middle of my fluffiness is my sweet pillow made for me by a cousin.

Denise married my Dad’s cousin and I consider her almost an aunt more than a cousin, but she made this cute little pillow for me. Here I am with these pink, fluffy, pillowy figures of my early days in this world. I wonder if Denise had already put the idea of cross-stitch in my head through this pillow, before Aunt Mary did.

My dolls are up in storage. My pillow is actually waiting to be cleaned right now. Then I will have it put maybe on my shelf once it’s finished drying. I seem to look very content with all my pink and colorful treasures here.
