What do I do?

Function

Dolls like me were originally made as ritual objects or charms. Mothers would make a "fertility" doll for their daughter as a wish that the daughter would have a good marriage and happy, healthy children.  Childless married women would make themselves a doll for the same reasons. I was made for a different purpose. I was made to be a source of income for my maker's family.
