My Opinion on the Beforever Name Change

-
Finally. Before you read this post I recommend you read the one from American Girl Doll News first. https://www.americangirldollnews.com/single-post/2019/02/12/Be-Not-Forever-How-The-Historical-Dolls-Got-A-Name-Change-That-Didnt-Stick  
        I want to talk about this myself since 2014 is one of the years where I got the most American Girl dolls. Here's a quick timeline of what year I got each of my dolls. (Minus non-AG)

2012: -Caroline
2013: -#38 (don't have anymore)
2014: -Clara
-Felicity
-Rebecca
2015: -Grace
-Maryellen
-#55 (don't have anymore)
2016: -Lea
-Kit
-Melody
-Sabrina (custom, originally#24)
2017: -Nanea
2018: -Luciana
-Fern
2019: -Blaire

       When Beforever was announced, the only thing I was excited about was that Samantha was coming back (I wanted her). Other than that, I hated every single aspect of Beforever, and it hadn't even been launched yet. Although I grew used to it, it still didn't seem right. (Well, for the characters who hadn't always been Beforever. Kit, Rebecca, Addy, etc.) If you knew nothing about American Girl and someone said,
      "Have you heard of American Girl's Beforever line?" They'd probably just be like, "Huh? What's that? Are they time capsule dolls or something?" What I'm trying to say is that probably simply the name change brought down American Girl's business. Also, if you had grown up with American Girl (1986-2013) you'd probably get pretty turned away from the new concept. So basically, I'm very pleased that Beforever is going back to American Girl.

 Thank you so much for reading!!!

Rainy Day (Blaire Short Story #1)

-
    First off, these aren't in any particular order, just little short stories about Blaire and what I think could happen in one of her stories. Also, sorry I'm writing this so late, I was going to write this yesterday, but I forgot to. In other words, I'm writing this at school. I hope you enjoy the story! (It's in Blarie's point of view.)      I stepped outside, that's when I remembered; it was raining. So then I turned around and went back inside. I wasn't wet thanks to the awning over our front porch. I went to the coat closet in my family's entry way and pulled out my lavender rain jacket and my floral umbrella. I threw on my rain jacket and opened the umbrella once I got onto the front porch. I then headed out in the pouring rain to the barn. My morning chore was to feed the animals and look for chicken eggs, which only took about forty-five minutes. Yet, I was often in the barn for much longer, just talking to the animals about my day; like they
