Dear Childhood Toys,
Man, it’s been awhile. Almost forever since I’ve seen you. I know most of you need your batteries replaced, have missing parts, mismatched outfits and have been given to family, friends and kids who really need you now more than I do. No matter where you all are out there, I have just one thing to say: thank you so much.
My childhood would not have been anywhere as amazing as it was if I didn’t have you guys. You all were the first things I picked up in the morning and the last things I put down at night. Sharing was hard because I didn’t want anyone else to have you.
Listen, I know it’s hard to realize that I don’t need you anymore. I have grown up and have my iPhone 6 and Macbook to keep me entertained for hours. I really am sorry but there comes a time when all good things have to come to an end.
To my favorite toys; Polly Pocket I hope your rubber clothes are being found all over other people’s houses, and to my I-Dog, I hope other little kids are rocking out to your tunes just as hard as I did. To my Furby, you scared me at times but I hope your hours of talking are being used by others. Hey, Betty Spaghetty, you brought many good times to me and my sister and I’m sorry for all the bite marks from my cat. Oh Tamagotchi, I’m sorry I haven’t fed you in years. To the toys with the best hair in the game, Troll Dolls, I hope you have some sort of new up-do. Most importantly, Barbie. You gave me the hopes and dreams that I can do anything I set my mind to, You were a true role model and I hope little girls today love you as much as I did.
Once again, thank you for making my childhood special. All the hours we spent together is something I hold near to my heart. Toys, if there is one thing I want you to remember at the end of the day it is that you’ve always got a friend in me.
Love,
Your Former Owner
