Mary Agnes




Hello I am Mary Agnes...I am the 4Th child of Phillip and Marie Robinson, Some say I was born the lucky child cause seem like nothing but luck just follows me everywhere I go. Momma says it not be luck just pure blessings. Today was first day back to school at the old school house. This be my second year going there I met a new friend who name be Willow. Looks like we going to be real good friends. Willow she a funny girl all she do most of day while teacher give the lesson was fidder around with her dress she say it be a new dress just made for her. First time she had new dress of her own nobody else wears. I guess that is where my blessing be cause I always had a new dress. My Momma she be the seamtress for the small town we live in. Willow she lives outside town few miles back, we made plans to meet up each day by the large tree near the Picketts. I can't wait to meet up with her again first time I had a friend my own age most kids here lot older than me. Some not as near smart as I am. Momma sits and helps me with my lessons she coulda been a teacher herself but they don't allow that for our folks so Momma says she use to have to even hide the fact she could read and write. I am going to be a teacher one day times going to change this I know Mister Hill always talking about change. I heard him and some men talking one day I couldn't hear all they was saying I didn't want them to catch me ease dropping on grown folk conversation. Mammy Smith says keep yourself in a child's place bad things happen when you don't.

Hey everyone I am just about finish working on Mary Agness and I need a break I think I am going to just work on more slips and bloomers take a break from stuffing dolls. My shoulder and neck is killing me today might be the weather. We have snow here and it is COLD lol. Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend
Peace and Blessings

  7. Hi Jess and Carla thanks so much ladies. I love my new tags Jess they came out better than I expected. I used a postcard and had everything printed on them. I have so many vintage hats just waiting for new dolls. I'm just not feeling too well today I tried earlier to work on a doll decided to leave it alone for now. Think i'm coming down with a cold been bothering me for a few days now.
    Happy Monday
