    I wanted a doll so badly but my parents thought they cost too much money. My mom got a kit and made me one instead. It was not the same!

    I still have the three I was lucky to get as a kid. My daughter's each have one but they are not so crazy about them like I was when I was a kid.

    I remember going with my father's friend to get her daughter one at Neiman Marcus, an original fully soft and hand signed by Xavier Roberts

    My sweet mom got a blonde one for me and a brunette one for my sister. My doll's name was Ann Lani. And I still have her!
