What was your favorite thing to imagine as a child?

It was submitted by: dates2diapers2.blogspot.com    

I was an only child so I had LOTS of time to play by myself. Most of that time was spent in imaginary worlds. When I got the chance to play with my cousins, I would try to drag them into those worlds as well.

The very first thing that I can remember ever imagining on a regular basis  was WONDER WOMAN!!! Complete with Underoos and yellow jump rope!



(pic from Wikipedia)

No one else was allowed to be Wonder Woman. *I* was Wonder Woman!!!!!

Now, tell the truth! Nothing but the truth!!

I was also obsessed with Charlie's Angels. I wanted to be Sabrina!!



(Wikipedia)

For my 4th Birthday I received a Sabrina doll and I was in HEAVEN!!!!!

Then I discovered reading....... I became Laura Ingalls! My cousin and I were ALWAYS arguing over who got to be Laura. Neither of us wanted to be that goody-two-shoes Mary. Although, our behavior was more reminiscent of Nelly.



In between I was Clara Barton or Amelia Earhart. Whatever book I was reading at the time. Although, I always went back to either Wonder Woman or Laura Ingalls.

All in all I think I see a pattern here. LOL I wanted to be a strong woman. Most of them are easy to see but if you think about it, living on the prairie and putting up with Nelly wasn't easy! ;)

PLEASE, go check out all the amazing posts!!!!!

  1. I love this! I wanted to be the pink power ranger, and then like you discovered books. Harry Potter. Still one of my all time favorites. My first chapter book was Secrets of the Droon. Hidden magical door in the basement! Travel all over with a fluffy pillow? I am glad you got this prompt!

  4. You ARE a strong woman! My son is reading Little House now. Is it wrong that I was in love with Alfonso AND Pa?

  12. I always wanted underoos - I always always always wanted them. So much so that when I see the grown up ones - I put them in my cart to 'take a ride' at the store but am never able to make myself buy them!

    And Charlie's Angels - and books. I love love love books. Always have. Always will. And I remember sitting in my elementary library the day I discovered Little House on the Prairie.

    Thank you for reminding me of these great childhood memories! You Rock!!!
