A doll bed with some history



Kate, now three and a half months old,
is inspecting three of her dolls in
a new-old doll bed her parents bought at a
church rummage sale for 5 dollars.



As for the bed itself, it will
remain a mystery who owned it before,
when it was made etc.

But as to the bed linen, that is a different story:
It was made by my Swedish maternal
grandmother for me when I was a baby.

I felt that Kate should have it when I visited
the family in January.

So it felt very good to look at these two
photos, spanning , in a symbolic way,
five generations in our family.
