Everyday Inspiration
Last night I had a nice long chat with my mother in law and she mentioned that she’d had a collection of beautiful dolls when she was a young girl. Unfortunately, her collection was given away due to a lack of space.
When writing today, I remembered our conversation, and my own doll, Becky, whom I carried with me wherever I went. I was inspired and ended up incorporating a childhood doll as a memory of the family’s past. I didn’t realize how powerful that memory would be, for both mother (who saved up and sacrificed to buy the doll and kept her as clean as she could), and daughter (who loved and carried the doll everywhere she went).
It’s wonderful to find inspiration in the memories we have in our daily lives.
