As you can see, no one in my family knows the meaning of the word "sentimental." If I still had it today, I would have had it framed- it was incredibly well done.

My mother did the same thing to me, the minute I left for college. She dumped everything in my room that I hadn't taken with me to the dorm, even though she'd been watching me collect it for years. I asked her why and she said if it was important, I would have taken it with me. How so when my dorm room space was the size of a postage stamp?!

This is the same woman who gave all my barbies to the next door neighbor when I was 12 without so much as asking me, because I didn't play with them anymore.
