When I was little, my Uncle Buster made me a wooden baby bed. He had a very special talent when it came to wood working. I remember him giving me this bed for one of my birthdays. It has had a baby in it ever since. My American Girl doll Samantha (retired) has lived at my mother's house in this bed since middle school (1990). My mom is in the process of cleaning out her home and remodeling each room. So everytime we see her she always has something to give me. On this occasion she brought me my baby bed. Immediately Reagan was drawn to it. She has claimed it hers ever since. However, this was until her she brought it into the living room where her baby sister Madison spotted it. I was washing the dishes and all of a sudden I heard Reagan crying and my husband saying, "Honey, come quick, you have to see this."
When I got into the room, this is what I saw.
Madison, thought it was made just for her. Even though she is now
too big to lay down, she loved sitting in it. Of course, to Reagan it was the end of the world.
Not pictured here is Daddy explaining to Reagan that Madison is simply just sitting in her baby's bed and is not taking it over. Too bad I couldn't fit all this in the picture. I just caught Madison looking over with her innocent expression. I have a feeling I will be seeing this expression a lot in the future.
Finally, Daddy's talk worked and Reagan decided to sit in the bed with her sister. It was a great laugh for us all. I'm just glad that Reagan decided to share and I got a great shot of my girls.
