beautiful doll and wonderful card! It took me a while to stop crying, it was so touching! They are on my desk, smiling to me, reminding me that my friends are there for me! I'm not good expressing this in English, but from the bottom of my heart, I thank you God for putting Cute and Veronika in my life, so I could meet wonderful friends here, my family now! Meg, I know I will meet you and Pauline someday and give you both a real hug! God bless you all always! Love and blessings, Yoriko

Yoriko, your little dolls are precious; so glad you love us as much as we love you.
Fondly,
Jacqueline

This is so sweet! I'm so happy that your friends are there for you even if they can't be physically there!

Yoriko, you are so right, Cute and Veronika, have brought so many people together. Wish we could all meet and get to see one another in person. Well you nearly had me in tears - Hugs and love Yvonne

they are lovely together!!

This is so precious....

Thank you, my friends, for your lovely comments. Yes, there are angels among us! Love and blessings, Yoriko

These two are delightful

Aren''t you just so very lucky Yoriko, well done to Pauline and Meganne for a lovely gift

I think that is simply marvelous Yoriko. I'm so pleased for u *

Wonderful that friendships can make people humble.

They are beautiful. What a nice thing to do for you. I hope they will lift your spirits any time you are down. Yoriko, if I were you I would be so tempted to continue crying so Meg and Pauline have to get on that plane to give a real hug :). Have a wonderful day and God bless

I am so glad she arrived quickly as I should have mailed her on Monday.

Pauline showed me Mai-Chan, before she was finished and I just had to make a Grandmother for her, so we went out shopping together and bought the material so I could make Manami-Chan.

I hope you can still smell the Lavender inside her, it came from my youngest son's garden (at Newcastle) and I dried it and thought it would be a nice addition.

Pauline and I really enjoyed making these for you, so whenever you are feeling low, we hope they will remind you how much you are loved.

Now please no more crying, or we'll have to hop on a plane and come and give you a real hug. :-)

Hugs n blessings, dear friend, you are dearly loved by many more Cuties too. Meg-Anne

the dolls are lovely. How wonderful of both Meg and Pauline to make these for you. They are both very special ladies.

Hi Yoriko,

Pauline and Meganne have done a wonderful job on making these beautiful Japanese dolls for you. I got a little present from Pauline when she came up with Meg on Wednesday.

Friends are forever!

Love to you - and just know we are here for you.

Chris

Thank you Iris, Pauline (Nonna57) made the first lovely doll, Mai Chan, on the right and gave me the idea to make one too.
Hugs n roses, Meganne
