Are These Antiques Too

These are antiques the old lady said. All of them? She nodded. Even these? I held up a Fisher Price toy barn. Especially that! She said. I left feeling bewildered. I had just held up my children’s favorite childhood toy. Are my children also antiques? And if they are antiques, Where do I stand? What does this make me? I got into my covered wagon and put a comforter over my head.

Hello Caren, I think you had a dream. Woke up and covered yourself then went back to sleep. Hugs.
