Foxie the beautiful girl. Love her. I hope she lives a long happy life with the people she loves and her beloved dolls.
Foxie – you are beautiful and we love you!!!!
Foxie is my favourite :). I was so glad to receive a card from all of you to say that she loved the troll doll I sent. You are all amazing people.
Foxie is a very special individual. I am so happy I came to know her through your blog posts. Imagine being born into Biomedical Research — overwhelming. May she rub her toes all day long everyday now that she is safe, cared for and loved.
What a sweet and precious girl!
