CHRISTMAS1974

Continuing My Story:

In December 1974, we had been in our new house for 6 months and Sonya, baby number 2, was born. Carol was two and a half and old enough to really enjoy Christmas. Naturally it gave us much joy to watch her.
Bill made Carol a dolls house, she was happy with that.


 Introduction to music making. She enjoyed trains (no gender bias)

 She was wearing a pretty dress which her grandma had made by hand. She also had a lovely Swiss dress sent by her Grossmuti.

 She enjoyed the little pool she got for Christmas.

Then we had a little concert.

  1. I can't help but smile because Carol was smiling so much. If Grossmuti's dress is on the right, it looks very special.

  4. I know that we don't generally try and take miserable photos but Carol's smile looks so natural and I would have thought from that that she had a very sunny personality.

  9. Sweet memories. Such happy girls with their Christmas gifts. My daughter's doll house, made by her grandpa, was her favorite toy for many years.

  14. I was never a girlie girl, and didn't care very much about fashions or jewellery. But I had only brothers and sons, and lived next door to my three male first cousins. Not a girl in sight anywhere :(

    Your daughter was so cute, so musical, so alert *sigh*. You are very fortunate
