This picture brings back so many memories, doesn't it?
Remember when as a child you really wanted something for Christmas that might just materialize under the tree on Christmas morning and you knew your parents had sacrificed to get it for you and you loved it all year long?
Remember when you could play outside without worrying about someone kidnapping you?
Remember wearing little hats? Most hats covered the ears. These girls must be dressed up! Remember when your mom would insist that you wear your coat outside so you wouldn't catch cold?
Remember when you lived in town but the houses were still far apart with big yards like this one in the background?
Remember the simplicity of a baby stroller that would look like this doll buggy? Remember no car seats to lug around? Your arm was the protection for the child as you drove and the child was standing in the front seat?
Personally, I remember this house in the background. A few years ago, the estate sold it and I was chosen as the listing agent. I was estatic! I'd always wanted to go in the sturdy old brick house that had so much charm!
That house worked me to death! EVERYONE in Searcy Arkansas and White County wanted to see that house also. I had to show it and show it and show it. Most were not interested in buying it; they just wanted to see it! We finally sold it to a person who loved old houses and he has put houses around it but kept the original look of the house. I'm pleased about that.
If anyone knows the identity of these two lovely little girls, speak up!
