We had a very nice Thanksgiving. My daughter Jamie couldn't wait to give me one of my Christmas presents and when she did I just busted out in tears.
When my daughters were young I told them about the Christmas when I was about 10 years old and I had asked for a Pink Ponytail Scrapbook. Every little girl my age was collecting Ponytail and I wanted this so bad. Well, Christmas day came and there was nothing Ponytail under the tree. Instead I got a red baseball autograph book. I was so disappointed but I tried to hide it from my mother.
So, anyway this is what my daughter found on Ebay....she had been searching for 7 years.
I immediately burst into tears because I was so touched. I guess it was the reaction she was looking for......
Anyone else remember Pontytail?

Hmm. I don't remember ponytail. Maybe it never made it to Vermont. Or maybe I was just as out of things then as I am now!
Oh my goodness, I certainly remember Ponytail. My niece had a hard plastic "Ponytail" purse, just a small thing, the size of a change purse. She had it with her the last time I saw her, 1957-58? She left it in the back seat of my mother's car when my brother's ex-wife picked her and her brother up. Over 55 years later I still have it.
What a lovely gesture for your daughter to have made.
