Meet Patty


I rang in the New Year by going into the city to visit Dad's friends Eric and Sara (my Central Park buddies!), then a bunch of us went out to brunch. I had fun with all of them, but my favorite "person" by far was Patty, the Julia-sized homemade doll that Sara has had since she was a little kid. Everyone else seemed really creeped out by her—Dad kept saying that she seems like one of those dolls who comes to life and attacks you while you sleep—but I just adored her!


I couldn't stop hugging Patty, holding hands and walking around the apartment with her (and throwing her down too). Take a look:



I'll see you again soon, Patty. Hopefully by then I'll be strong enough to carry you all the way home.
