This is a very early Christmas memory of my middle brother. Gene never seemed overly excited about Christmas; he was the kind of kid who had more fun making things than playing with toys. I was so young that year that I really didn’t understand how Christmas worked but Gene was up early and I followed him. He picked up an unwrapped doll and handed it to me.”This must be for you,” he said. I just stared at the doll with the tiny teeth; she was more than a little scary. Gene began unwrapping a large, tall box with his name on it. When the paper came off he whooped and got down on his knees to pull the pieces of metal out of the box. There were written instructions included but he left them on the floor and began building a bridge? a steamroller? a tower? Maybe all those things. I never saw my brother happier than the Christmas morning he found his Erector Set under the tree. I’ll have to ask him how he remembers it.
PS I never warmed up to the doll with teeth.
