vanillafluffyWhat childhood toy did you desperately want that your parents refused to give you? Do you still think about getting one?
What, you mean the pony we didn't have room for in the backyard? That they said we couldn't afford to stable at a real stable? (Granted we're talking about Staten Island, NY, but there were at least two stables there that I knew of at the time.) Not that a horse, strictly speaking, is a toy, but otherwise, I had a vast collection of plastic horses (including a LOT by Breyer), an ample array of Barbies and the like, new bicycles when I outgrew the old ones---no, the one thing I really had my heart set on that I never got was a horse/pony of my own.
Reality being what it is, I don't expect to add a horse to my life, unless I win the lottery and gain a Mustang!
