Toy Room

We had a toy room and it was located in the most distant part of the house. Except for putting on an occasional puppet show my siblings and I didn't hang out there. We wanted to be near our father.

One day I came home from school and searched for my favorite toy, my view master. I had a super-deluxe model that was battery powered and lit up under the covers. I asked my mother where it was. She said she gave my toys away to the maid's family because "They don't have anything".
