Then & Now

That was then...

Cristie with her dolly

her baby buggy

her mother curled her bone straight hair

tennis shoes with stockings cuffed

a sun dress
it's obvious she is well loved
after all someone bothered to take a photo with film

This is now...

sixty years later

Cristie holding her youngest grand baby

Rosie

a real live dolly

that snuggles right in

and is a squishy little darling
it's obvious Rosie is well loved
her little shrug sweater
with a pony and bow crowning her glory

a dream come true

i do believe in dreams
