GREEN MACHINE! Remember that Big Wheel from back in the day? That’s all I wanted … EVER!!! Everytime this conversation comes up it breaks my ginger heart all over again.

TEXT QUESTION OF THE DAY:
What is a gift you wanted as a child that you didn’t get that you are still frustrated about?

American Girl Doll and a Barbie Jeep!
I wanted a sibling but that didn't happen.
On my 15th birthday, my parents gave me and my siblings news that within a year, we would be moving to a third-world country as missionaries. They promised we would have a huge yard and I could have a horse. We did move and I never got my horse. It’s a running joke in our family, but I sure wanted that horse for my 16th birthday.
A PONY!
This kitty that has baby kitties in her belly. I have always had some kinda feeling about this
Trip to Ireland, My dad still won't let me go. I work for him, that is how he still stops me from going.
Easy Bake Oven
Power wheels car but by the time they came out I was "too old" for one. Really upset me when my cousin got one.
I really wanted a bb gun for my 9th birthday, I got a fishing pole instead
A golden retriever
A large trampoline. We begged our parents every time we saw it at Sams Club

American girl doll!! All my friends and cousins had them I was so jealous lol I would still love the Courtney doll in all her 80s glory
Decent parents
Growing up I would get a holiday Barbie every Christmas. My senior year of high school my dad thought I was grown out of it and didn’t get it for me. I cried Christmas morning and am still upset cause now my collection is missing that year! I buy them for myself every year now.
American Girl Doll and brand name clothes
A pink Nintendo DS
The Felicity American Girl Doll
I wanted a blue or silver 10 speed bike, but I got a red Huffy 3 speed instead.
My daughter would say a motorized barbie car. Told her Santa couldn't fit it in his sleigh!
Barbie dolls! My older sister hated anything Barbie so they assumed I did, too
A dog
A bumble ball I got one for Christmas one year and it was defective so it wouldn't even turn on. I never got a replacement
A pony. God damn it, I just want the horse. And the cat and the dog and the goats and cows and pigs... I was a literal Alvira.
A sit-n-spin
Trip to Disney
Blue clogs
Baby alive. Now that I have children I don’t see the appeal.
Doodle Bear. My cousins got one the Christmas I wanted it.
I wanted a pool. I never got one, but my mom made sure the grandkids got one and on days they are not over, the adults take it over. So maybe I should say we eventually got one. LOL
A Snoopy sno cone machine!

Can't think of anything. My mom and dad tried very hard to get the things I wanted most for birthday and Christmas. I wasn't spoiled... they were just awesome at that
Power Wheels
Last time I said the haircut play doh set and Steve said he went out and bought Charlotte that item…did she like it??

I wanted to see Garth Brooks in concert. I didn’t get to go but my dad took my step-sister and then called me from the concert to let me listen…
