    My childhood plate

    I was going through a cupboard today and found a plate I ate from, as a child. I still love it, and I remember it very well and how cute I thought the kitties were.

    I bet my parents got it for me to make me eat more.

    Do you still have some of your childhood things too?

    Oh Randi, that's so cute. They must have known that you would grow up to be a wonderful meowmie.

    I don't have any plates but I do have a sterling silver cup (engraved with my name and birthdate) and a very small silver fork and spoon. Oh yes, and I also have my baby album that covers from birth to about 2 years old.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Oh, I do love that plate! I have a cat plate collection that I plan to display once my kitchen is finished. I would love to add that one to my collection.

    Randi,

    What a beautiful plate! My daughter found her plate, bowl and cup from when she was a baby. It's got a clown on it and is made of bone china. I thought I had left it behind when I moved after my divorce. I'm so glad her Dad kept it for her.

    I have nothing from my childhood but several things from my son's childhood, although he has them all in his possession except for one thing: his Goofy spoon. I still have it and use it in my flour cannister. Every visit he jokingly claims he's going to throw it out. I told him I'd cut him out of the will if he does. That'll learn 'im!
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I love that plate!!
    I do not have things like this because I am the youngest of three so by the time they got to me they were either broke or worn out.
    If there is anything, my mom probably still has it at the house.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
