I have some nesting dolls from Ukraine and Russia my dad gave me when I was little (he traveled a lot so I got a lot of guilt-fueled presents), but those are much more personal.

not many people seem to remember/know that rhyme..it was one of my favourites growing up, and still continues to be.

i sometimes catch myself humming the tune to it or singing it under my breath to myself…

i was taught it the other way around though..starting with the fly, working its way up from there, not down from the cow to the fly, and instead of -I know an old lady- ive always sang it as -There was an old lady..-

thats one thing ive always loved about old rhymes and nursery tales, so many variations.

thank you for sharing, shannon, youve made my day.
