Raggedy Ann and Andy

Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls touch my heart in a special way.

The reason why is that they were the theme for my son's nursery.

It was so long ago but in my mind's eye, it seems like yesterday.

At that time, I had a slew of Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls that I picked up wherever I could find them.

Crib sheets, too, had the sweet characters on them.

"Real" Raggedy Anns and Andys have little hearts sewn onto them, right where hearts are usually located. 

You cannot see them unless you look under their outside clothes. 

There you will find the carefully sewn red  hearts, ready to love children of all ages.

The Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls shown in today's post make their home for now at the Berkshire Mountain Country Store in Lee, Massachusetts.

They are, of course, ready to go to their  "real home"  when someone buys them to love!
