I remember when my daughter was young and her school had a raffle for a cabbage patch doll. I bought some tickets and waited. Low and behold, we win!! When we picked up the doll, her name was the same as my daughters’, Jessica. She was thrilled, and called her Jessica #too.

thanks for a chance to win another.

One of the happiest day that I can remember was the day I adopted Kristina Rena. She had red hair and blue eyes. I took her to school when I was 10 years old (1984) and all my friends were excited. I allowed them to hold her while I ate lunch and swung on the swing set. On my way into the school after recess three little girls said to me what is a black girl like you doing with a white baby. I responded because I was chosen to love her and it doesn’t matter what color she or I am as long her we care for each other.

Thank you,
Patricia

My fondest moment is getting my “Rachel” cabbage patch kid at Christmas, when I was 7 years old. I never knew the trouble my mom went through, just to make sure I got one. I am now 33 and still have my Cabbage Patch Doll. But now my 3 year old daughter plays with it. I think it’s just great. And I tell her the story of how Grandma waited in line hours on end to get it. She already knows her Grandma is special. But I can’t help but look at that doll and think of how great my mom is.

I remember my best friend and I were in the early years of high school when we got “OUR BABIES♥” We went on a camping trip together and we had beds in our tent for our kids. We spent so much money on film for our digital cameras. We took pictures of them quite a bit that summer. My Cabbage Patch has been used by all three of my girls. It’s amazing that she still has a faint smell of that wounderful baby powder smell. I will always cherish the memories I have and all the new ones that my children have made with her.♥

Whenever I think of Cabbage Patch Kids I think of my grandmother who was always buying them for us. My grandmother loved them so much when she was alive. I remember how she looked so hard to get Cabbage Patch Kids Dolls for us for Christmas when they first came out and how she actually managed to get some for us. It seemed liked times were so much simpler and happier back then. And I really loved all the Cabbage Patch Kids Dolls I received over the years. They were designed so well.
