Our 12-year old friend Nick had a blood test at the IWK today. He claimed not to want a puppet, but manged to emerge with one for him and one for his kid sister too! What strikes me about these is the time that went into the 3 bows on each hair-do. A very caring person made these little poppets. And I do mean poppet, which according to the Oxford Dictionary is British usage for an endearingly sweet or pretty child, but to me means a sort of homespun, cute and floppy dolly.
