A letter to the World
 
We recently reviewed our online statistics and became aware of the fast growing number of new readers from countries all over the world. It simply blew us away! We often forget just how far we are from one another until we are reminded of all the readers from the various countries who love doll stories as much as we do.

Because our stories are written in English, we have often wondered if many of you could read the captions.   Thanks to Google and my partner and friend, Stephen, from Sophia Solutions, that should no longer be a worry.  We have decided to acknowledge all possible countries by breaking the language barrier and making "My Dolls Story" become international.  We can now say, "Hello to the World."

We pray and hope you will continue to enjoy our many stories, as much as we enjoy bringing them to you. Don't forget that you can let us know what you think of "Our Doll Stories."  So let's communicate. We're looking forward to hearing from you.

Toni Burrough and your friends at mydollsstory.com

The Greatest Gift That I Can Give to You:
I remember that since I was a small child God has always been a strong force in my life. I have always felt His presence whether I was in the midst of unscrupulous behavior or in a situations where I was waiting for a promotion on a job. As I sit here many years later looking back, I can't imagine living my life without believing in Him. God has proven His unconditional love to us all and while doing so we return that love with total disrespect, such as taking prayer out of our public schools.

We have one woman to thank for that, while we sat back and let it happened. Her name was Madalyn Murray O'Hair. She was an atheist that didn't want her sons to be forced to pray. Ms. O'Hair felt that was going against their constructional rights. I guess that's why I wasn't surprised when I saw her story on American Justice\ Crime Stories. Ms. O'Hair, her son who was now grown and her granddaughter by another son had been killed by a man who happened to have worked as an office manager in their atheist organization one year prior.

He kidnapped them and held them in a hotel room while he made her son withdraw all of their money from their business account. They said it was over seven hundred thousand dollars. I often wonder if she called on God as she and her family sat tied up, when knowing that this man was going to kill them. I wonder while they were feeling helpless did they also feel hopeless without God being in their lives. I found myself feeling sad for them and then it came to me that they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high.

I've always felt what Ms. O'Hair did was wrong and now I want to try to set the record straight by having prayer put back into our public schools. Prayer is a reminder to us that no matter who we are, where we are, or what we are doing, there is someone far grater than ourselves that we have to answer to.

Once prayer was taken out of our public schools, our children were placed in danger. Weapons started showing up in their lockers. The next thing we knew our children started killing their teachers and their classmates. For those who weren't killed,  their lives were ruined and once again they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high. 

Our government is now removing everything that has God's name in or on it. This is their way of separating church from state. Then our government and our people were attacked by another country. They highjacked a few of our planes and flew two of them into two of our tallest buildings in one of our busiest cities. They were government buildings and they were full of men, women and children of all nationalities and most of them were killed on that dreadful day. When horrible things happen like attacking another country, it is the innocent people who pay for our mistakes and once again they had fulfilled their destiny and the price they paid was high.

There is no real separation of church and state. Our forefathers knew this, that's why they put God's name in and on everything that they could, not thinking that one day we would have it removed. The Bible is the book of our history and it is also the book of our laws. It teaches us to put God first, to put Him in all that we do and to love Him with all of our hearts. It also teaches us that our God is a jealous God. What did we think He would do when we started removing His name? We haven't fulfilled our destiny as of yet, so I wonder, will there be a high price for us to pay?

 A letter to My Friends
Due to circumstances beyond my control we have decided to open this website to the public since I'm currently not able to work as often as I would love too. 

Our members have encouraged me due to my illness to open this site to the public. When I first started writing my stories I never thought that you would get such a kick out of them, but you did. What a compliment, and because of you I can't wait to get back to work writing and building sets. It has given me such pleasure to be able to write these stories for you and to be able to laugh with you and discuss things about the characters. I still can't believe that you spent so much time trying to find out what was going too happened next. 

I would like to thank each and every one of you for your loyalty and let you know that I have had a blast. You make me proud. Now keep the emails coming I'm sure we will find something to laugh about.
You're Friend Forever, 
Toni

As you can see, we have been very busy. We have been building sets, and putting them in dolls shows. Our sets have been a great success. Those of you who has been with us from the conception of our stories have seen a big difference in our doll dioramas. We know that our readers could care less about the doll dioramas, all you care about is "what’s going to happen next in the story". But never the less, we are planning to build our sets to match the quality of our stories. It is important to us that you, our members receive nothing but our very best.

We have another little surprise for our members. Your names were placed in a raffle and the drawing was held on July 1, 2006. And the winners are as follows:
Luke from Jacksonville, FL. Luke won a remote control Escalade.
