Lol. Barbies: When our oldest was young, we went through many many Barbies. Every Christmas and birthday were more Barbies. Being the outside the box girl she was (and still is!), she would tailor certain Barbies to fit in with whatever she was playing. A sharpie was used to draw stitches on one Barbie..that was FrankenBarbie. Hair was completely cut off another...that was Head Lice Barbie.

My favorite was when she got “Sleepover Barbie” for a birthday. This doll came dressed in pajamas and had eyes which would stay open or stay closed by applying with cold or warm water with a cloth to her eyes. Eventually, after hundreds of “sleepovers”, poor Barbie’s eyes wouldn’t open again. No matter... she dubbed her Dead Barbie and would drag her out for the occasional funeral, attended by a grieving Ken and a few friends :)

Haven’t thought of that in a while. Good times. 😀
