Babushka Babushka Ya-ya

I love this song by Kate Bush. I remember driving along, it blaring through the stereo and singing it loudly and emotion filled.

Now, years later I have quite a collection of Babushka dolls. It started about 10-15 years ago when my now husband bought one back from Germany. Somehow a collection has magically grown since then. Babushka images have become popular and common now, but my collection was here before the craze and will be here long after.

This is the original that started the collection. She is old and beaten up but still has a smile on her face. I think she got her Lashes done at Lash Me, because they look a-ma-zing

'How she was before the years flew by, and how she was when she was 

beau-ti-ful'

These were a gift from my Mother-in-law. They are actually Salt, pepper and... umm...salt (maybe?) shakers

'A pseudonymto fool him, she couldn't have made a worse move' 

Lindt and Kenzo (aka The Frauds). I only bought the chocolate and perfume because of the faux babushkas. We are very accepting and try to include them but they are the ones we pass to babies or toddlers to play with, suck on or throw at the dog.

'Wanted to see if he, would fall for her incognito' 

The world travellers. They came from far and wide and found a dusty little home that they now call "My dusty little home"

'He got the feeling they had met before'

Big Mamma. She is huge, I call her Amazon Babushka. I think I need to find her a matching man. Then she'll feel less self conscience. She sort of looks like she is hunching, trying to hide her height a little.

'Uncanny how she, reminds him of his little lady'

'He shouted out I'm all yours babushka, babushka, babushka ya-ya'

PSS: I think I need to practise the wordlessness.
