Thanks! My jaw dropped when I came to "Ursula -- Certainly" I thought I was alone. I'm so glad there are may people who love Renata. I've been puzzled by lack of enthusiasm when I suggest on this board and at Babycenter.com. It seems more mainstream than old-fashioned, but it never gets much of a response so that's why it's on the list. You've made me feel better about it, and others on the list. Thanks.
