I love the second phone (princess phone?) My friend's grandmother had this really ornately carved phone table with a built in seat and a gorgeous phone like that one. I always used to go visit just so I could feel "rich" when I pretended to use the phone!
I still hold dear the memories of dialing the phone for my grandma..it's really dialing the numbers..and learning to answer and make calls with proper phone etiquette in English..and being laughed at by my mom's colleagues.. (I heard them saying..there's a little English 'missy' on the line).

They don't make phones like they used to. I blame my Father.
