“Mommy” Gelle and “Daddy” Joey gave me a Barbie doll for Christmas! Even though Gelle joked that she bought it because I was “making parinig” (dropping hints), I totally didn’t expect it. She probably meant this blog where I mentioned the significance of Barbie dolls and Christmas to me and how I wouldn’t mind receiving one for Christmas. So anyway, I should’ve guessed it right off the bat when the gift came in a “Toys R Us” wrapping paper, but I only realized what it was when I started to rip off the wrapper because Gelle was so excited, she could barely contain herself and I knew that whatever this was, she must know for sure that I want it. My elation at finding a Barbie Doll under the wrapper was like that of a child. Gelle said the Barbie doll was her because she was a Wedding Day Sparkle Barbie. It’s my prettiest Barbie to date. I love it. Her name is Joelle, after the givers.
