iF wishes were horses then beggars would ride on clouds of white stallions . . .
Are you a doll fancier always looking for something unique to add to your collection?
Would  you like to capture the memory  of  your  little darling in a  special outfit?
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
She had so many children, she didn't know what to do
There was a young genie who was brand spanking new
        She just received her first assignment and she didn't know what to do
The deafening clang of the great chamber doors  closing behind her abruptly brought            Rocki  back  to her senses.   "I  just can't wait  tell somebody about this"

                                            And so our lil tale begins . . .
Once upon a time in a land far away. . .
Who let the dogs out?

Meet Amy. She's our guard-en dog.  She's excited 'cause she finally gets to  introduce a revolutionary dog toy called INDOGSTRUCTO.   She's been part of a two year test market group  with   real  live big dogs, little dogs, dogs who climb on rocks, tough dogs, sissy dogs, and Cheyenne who has four white socks!  These new toys are rings made of durable polyurethane which is FDA approved. They are  safer for your pets, especially those  teething puppies, than the usual rubber, rawhide or rag chew toys on the market. They are impervious to the weather and  uv-rays. They don't pose a choking hazard because they can't splinter, shatter or tear apart.  INDOGSTRUCTOS are available in three different sizes and they are so affordable you can get one of each. Don't you know a dog who deserves the very best!  INDOGSTRUCTOs will soon be available  at your favorite pet store and on line.

Someplace deep in the heart of the Land of WYSIWYG there  was a mother wishing upon the first star as she did the night before, and on so many nights  before this one.   Somehow  she  just knew  there was someone out  there somewhere  who  could  do something  to help her  and  all of her little darlings too.  She loved  them all very much,   but  the time had come to let them go.   She longed to find a special home for  each and every one more than anything else in the world.    She wouldn't allow herself  to give up hope.  This might be the night  her  certain someone would hear her plea.  And so, without fail, she wished . . .

Indeed, her intuition was right!   The Spirit in the Sky  decided  that tonight was the night to step in and control destiny.  And so, at that very same moment,  in the  mere wink of an eye, the entire course of two lives had been changed.   

Meanwhile,  on that very night,  a young apprentice  was  summoned to appear  before the Council of Jinn.   This wasn't the first time.  You see,   young Rocki and rules didn't always agree.    But, much to her surprise and delight,  instead of being in trouble,  she was  presented  with her formal decree.  All that she strived for had just come to be!   It was official, Rocki was now a full-fledged  Genie.
.  

Her brain was  so loaded it nearly exploded, but the Council had even more for her to store in there.   Rocki was given  her first assignment, and low and behold,  it was none other than  the old woman and all of her little ones too, and they even gave her a  brand new vehicle to use.

Rocki knew this assignment wasn't going to be easy  so she didn't waste any time getting started, but  when she got there the house was bare, the children were all outside playing.   She decided the best way to learn about them was  to quietly stand by and watch them.  At first glance, they just looked like any other kids. Some of them were being bashful,  some were pouting, some good little ones were praying, some  were playing hide and seek, and some were even  in  time out. As  she  took  a closer  look and beheld all  those little faces, the solution  popped right in to her head.  She got so excited, she yelled "YAHOO" right out loud.  I've got it!  I know just what I'll do!

The very next day as the children were playing, the old woman heard the most terrible of screams. She sprang to her feet to see what was the matter. It was only a teeny tiny mouse.  Suddenly she remembered the dream she had the night before.  It was about a  genie who kept  singing a silly little rhyme  "Follow  the  mouse to the  little red house!"

"This is no coincidence,  it's clearly a sign."  She didn't  even think twice. She lined us all up  and we followed that  mouse from our little corner of the world all the way  to  the Rock Garden,  where all of our wishes came true.   All the  kids got new moms  to love them,  the old woman finally had the house to herself,   and  Rocki was  even rewarded  with a  new home of her own for completing her assignment so quickly, and  we all  lived happily ever after.  
THE END.

The moral of our story?  It's sad but it's true, Genies don't really grant wishes for you.   All they can do is send you a clue through  the little voice that lives inside of you.   Follow  without question what it tells you to do,  and  you'll  make  your own wishes and dreams come true!

Lil Darlinz Kidz are life size sculptures who look like children, pose like statues and interact like dolls, but Lil Darlinz Kidz Dolls are not toys for your real live little darlings to play with.    Even  though we are pretty tough,   we can break and leave sharp edges that could hurt your real live little darlings. 

We are not mass produced.  Each one of us is hand crafted so we each have our own unique personality.   No two of us will ever  be the same!  We have fabric "skin" over a unique "skeleton".  Our hair and faces are even hand applied.  Our hands and arms are poseable so we can hold  our toys or things you would like us to have.  We can stand by ourselves and there are even two different ways you can help us to walk. You can  hold our hands and walk with us just as you would with a real live little darling or you can  put your hands on our  shoulders, with your thumb in the front,  and your fingers on our back and then  you just need to bend your fingers forward, one hand at a time.

There is nobody else in the whole wide world quite like us and no place you can get one of us 'cept for here in the Rock Garden.

We wear clothes and shoes made for real little darlings so you  can change our outfits any time you want to.  Maybe you'd like us to wear that special outfit your little darling has outgrown. We love to get dressed up  in fancy clothes, maybe you'd like us to show your support for your favorite sports team on game day, wear a holiday outfit, or even  wear an outfit with your favorite cartoon character on it.  Be honest, have you ever been  shopping and there it was,  the cutest little outfit you've ever seen, and  you  thought to yourself, I wish  I had someone to buy this for.   Well . . .


Please don't forget to visit our   photo album.   You'll find pictures and stories about each kid who is  looking for a home right now. We're sure you'll fall in love with our Ilittle  f a         c e s  too!

If  you're interested in a Lil Darlinz Kidz doll but you don't see just the right one for you,  please  get in touch with Rocki.  She  can  make one just for you.  Maybe you'd  like  one  wearing a special  outfit  you supply.  Would  you  like a   certain hair color or  style.   We can even name one   after your special little darling.     Well,   what the heck, let's just say  that almost anything is  possible here  in the Rock Garden.        

In case you haven't figured it out by  now, the Rock Garden  is not
merely a web site where dolls are bought and sold.  It's  virtual-e an online storybook  where the pages come alive.    It's a place where we've tried  to capture the  innocense of childhood.   While you're visiting us, you can, at least for a little while, leave behind your
hectic routines as working wives and mothers, some of life's
little problems, and just maybe,  some of those big problems
too. You can come here to relax,  there is no stress or
loneliness here, and it's even ok  for adults to "play"  with dolls,
in fact, it's even encouraged!

We  even have our own virtual playgroup at  MSN  Communities    where moms" of Lil Darlinz Kidz Dolls can go to share photos
and stories, and even chat with other "moms", in a  restricted, safe, and clean web environment.     Wouldn't you agree it's better for you than alcohol or medication and it sure is cheaper than therapy.

Please spend some time  looking around our garden.  Help yourself to all the eye candy you'd like.  It's free.  You'll never see anything else quite like it!
