I have found a cute picture of myself in my sunbonnet in 1931, a bonnet which I still have in my dressing up drawer, and have worn as a grown-up to a fancy-dress party.
And here is still another generation: my son in his woolly bonnet in Spring 1963, and in his sunhat in summer 1963.
Ah! toys yes. I have my teddybear, an old spinning top, and the letters my father made for me out of thin plywood, for learning the alphabet. I'm sure there are others too - but I am a terrible hoarder!
If you feel that you could manage without it, why not pass it on to someone whose payment will not be enough to keep them warm and well fed this winter?
This blog is about leaving my footprint behind when I go. It's also about finding out who I am now, even if it's a different person each day. It's about thinking, feeling, learning and changing - and about laughing too, I hope; and it's about filling my life with new people and making each new day interesting.
In my posts I have used some images from the web which I believe to be royalty free. If you spot anything which you know to be otherwise, please let me know and I will remove it.

Wow! I don't think I have anything from my childhood. Certainly not clothes, the odd toy maybe.
