When I was a kid, I wanted an Ack Ack gun. It was a toy gun similar to a WWII antiaircraft gun. My dad searched and searched for it for a Christmas gift but could never find one.

Well it's not a toy per say, but my mom never let us use those "police car grocery carriages" because they were always way too dirty and had something gross in them...but I always wanted to ride in one :'(

I wanted that giant doll. The one that was as tall as I was. I also always wanted a fancy dolly with porcelain face and hands. With a body made of soft cotton, in a beautiful dress.

Now that I think about it, that might have been scary.

Yes, it might've been scary to own a giant doll. One of my sisters had Madame Alexander doll, which had a porcelain-like face & was dressed like one of the Little Women. I liked dolls myself back then, too, but smaller ones I could sew clothes for, like a Ginny doll, Barbie doll, Betsy McCall doll. I still sew a bit but only for---- myself though..

I really wanted a Sega Game Gear when I was a kid, and I remember my mom telling me I could get one for myself when I was old enough to earn money and pay for it myself.

I was scared that, by the time I was old enough to get a job and buy games, I wouldn't be into them anymore.

Luckily, that isn't the case.

Although I hardly have any time to play them, I do still love crashing on the couch and playing me some Xbox.

I wanted  doll house pretty bad, but they were too expesive and I was one of the last kids of a huge Family & it was too hard for my parents to scrounge around to find one used.

But guess what? I don't hold any grudge, in fact today I live in a big fascinating old house. Sometimes I think the seed was sewn back then.
