OMG! gmkb,
My dear mother loved, loved, loved the Balloon Lady. My husband and I purchased her for Mom one Christmas and she cried when she opened her up. Mom is long gone now but I will never, ever part with the Balloon Lady. Everytime I look at her, which is often, I am reminded of the sheer joy she gave Mom. Like you, I have a few others that belonged to my mother but my favorite is the Balloon Lady. Keep enjoying her. docsgirl
