The Gentle Touch of Aunt Neggie

July 30, 2025 by Kelsi

I wanted to give you all a little update on our “Aunt Neggie“. Back in March, Jenna wrote a blog about Negra starting to carry dolls around with her, though at the time, it seemed a bit inconsistent. Since then, however, Neggie has continued this heartwarming habit, and it’s become a steady part of her daily routine. More and more frequently, she can be seen with a doll or stuffed animal in tow, often tucked in her pelvic pocket.

Today inspired me to share some of my Negra collection with you all. Something about her walking out onto Young’s Hill with Foxie’s troll doll really struck me. We can’t be for certain why she carries a doll around more now, but it sure is sweet to see! ❤️

Another interesting thing that happened was after Negra walked out, everyone can to greet her.

Bonus of Foxie with her new doll! Foxie hasn’t let this one out of her sights yet, but I am sure “Aunt Neggie” will get a turn to watch her soon 🙂
