I have three favorite dolls from childhood - Samantha, Chips, and Carrie. Chips is a porcelain clown doll who plays "Send In the Clowns." Carrie is a rag doll given to me by a family friend; she actually has a last name, too, it's Alexander. My aunt gave me Samantha, a sort of 'American Girl' style dress up doll, looks like she's from the 30s or 40s. She can open and close her eyes, and her arms can come out of their sockets but they can pop right back in. The only thing about Samantha is she hardly has any hair. Apparently, my aunt cut it in her youth, and I didn't help by pulling Samantha's hair out when I was mad. We've been thinking of getting her restored, but we don't know where we could go to do it. But I love my three dolls, no matter what. They've been with me through so much. I would give them to my daughter, if I have one in the future.
