Mom on the Go: Share your Barbie story
We all have a Barbie story.
Maybe your story is the same as a co-worker's (we'll call her GiGi): As a young girl she took her middle sister's prized Barbie with her on a trip downtown with her mom.
It was cold and snowy outside, so GiGi burrowed Barbie in her winter coat to keep her warm. Somehow, she slipped away. Tears ensued.
GiGi's mother filed a missing Barbie report with the town's radio station. The doll was never found.
Or maybe Barbie was never allowed to escape your lips, much less enter the home.![]()
I had Barbie, and Ken, and the black Barbie, and the pink remote-control Cadillac, and her townhome with a bubbling spa (add water and press the pump to create bubbles!!).
What's your Barbie story?
