Hello Lavender Ballerina Friend

Lavender ballerina sealed up in a box. I feel so sad it has been so long for you, dear. I did not remember the day I shut you in. I felt no guilt; I was on to bigger toys – and boys. Finding you in my mother’s attic today gave me joy. Especially since my own six-year-old daughter is intrigued. This used to be yours! She says with a tinge of awe. Not realizing until now that I was ever a child.
