I agree with this idea and would like to suggest that you get a step ladder and take a photo from above so that the dolls show up a bit more. You are the best. Love that you are doing this.

Or ... could you elevate the heads of the dolls (like on pillows) so you can show more of their faces? These are so great and I think your idea for a card to enclose is wonderful!

I agree with this Vickey. THe dolls look so cute in the bed and would make a lovely card to be sent with the dolls to their new home. You are so thoughful.

I agree with Nan wholeheartedly. Thank you for thinking of those children.

Thank you for your gift of dolls to very sick children.

Well, I'm not so sure about this. I wonder if that very sick child might think you meant he or she was soon going to be "an angel"(die). I know this sounds ugly but I don't mean it that way. But sometimes children can have odd ideas about what a "grown-up" means. I think making the dolls are wonderful, kind and loving gifts. Perhaps a different wording on the front of the card could work better.
