Reviving the Patch

Forty years ago, and in different ways, we both got an introduction to Xavier Roberts' Little People (aka, Cabbage Patch Kids).

One of us became the proud adoptive parent of these two little cuties--Casey Jacqueline and Zachary Colin.

The other one worked at Toys-R-Us during Christmas and regularly had dolls ripped out of his hands.

Our reunion with Casey and her younger brother happened when they recently broke out of storage. They were adorable but seemed a little lonely. After all those years together we thought they needed a friend...or two...or more?

Little did we know we were embarking on a massive rescue operation to save kids from the mean streets of Ebay. What we affectionately have come to call—Cabbage Patch Rehab.

Rest assured that we are taking this endeavor seriously but not literally. We may be crazy (you don't have to agree so vehemently) but at least we aren't using real babies.
