As a kid there was one toy that I had always wanted but never had received.. Even though I had made it very clear that I had wanted this toy the most compared to some of the other toy's that I was given.. I never ended up getting it. This was an "Easy Bake Oven." I remember how I used to always go over to some of my friends house's back as a kid & seeing that they had one.. I was so jealous of them because I had always wanted one..
I sometimes wish I could go back to my childhood & change this because.. I feel like I kind of missed out on my childhood in away because I wasn't able to have the toy I had always wanted. As silly as that may sound..
I just look back at it now & don't understand why my parents didn't go through with buying me something that I had always wanted..
My other half know's that I've always wanted an easy bake oven.. And he told me he'd actually go & buy me one now.. I thought that was so cute of him to even bring up an idea such as this one. But I know that even if I was to get an easy bake oven at this point in my life.. It still wouldn't make much of a difference for me because..
I am now a grown adult & playing with a toy such as this one just wouldn't be the same.. It's not like when your a kid & you have such a great imagination.. And you can feel so carefree playing with your toys.. I think more then anything in away. I would feel some-what silly if others we're to see me playing with an easy bake oven that is made for a kid, not an adult.. Though I know at the same time.. That sometimes it doesn't matter how you may look when doing something or buying a toy from your childhood.. As long as it fills that void that you had since you we're a kid I guess you could say..
Either way I hope that when I have children.. They won't grow up like I had wishing that I could still have a toy that I didn't have at such a young age.. I hope that I am able to get them the things they want as I know what it's like.. To want something with every ounce of your heart & still not receive it..
But I guess in away this has happened to all of us at one point or another.. And this is why sometimes when we grow up to be adults.. That we will go out & purchase the things we had always wanted as a kid.. To feel like we finally had gotten something that we had been wishing for.. For years on end.
Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

when i was younger, we really are struggling financially. all i dreamed of having is a big talking doll. i never had it but i don't feel bad about not having it. i had a colorful childhood and i felt the love of my parents and i am satisfied with those.

I wanted the doll Baby Alive you could feed it baby food and change it's dipers.
I never got it my mom would tell me no it's full of germs and will smell and now that i think about it she was so right about that.
