Throwback Thursday :: Meet Molly Heffinger Graves

Thursday, June 7, 2012

We hope you are LOVING Throwback Thursdays just as much as we are! This week, we would like to introduce you to Little Miss Molly. Otherwise known as “Dollface” or “Jones Patrol,” circa the late 80’s and early 90’s.

Ask her mother to describe Molly as a baby, and she says “a blonde Shirley Temple.”  

Ask Molly and she says “a blonde Ronald McDonald.”

She may seem like a sweet, innocent blonde… and truth be told, she was and still is!

At age 4, she dreamed of being a model. But, as she progressed through school, she loved all her teachers "so much" that she wanted to be a teacher when she grew up instead!

Can we say teacher’s pet?!

In her free time, Molly loved eating Dunkaroos, playing tennis (once ranked 34th in the Midwest, we might add) and fishing!

Proof:

She always had a fabulous sense of style, from bright orange overalls (???) to this fur number.

Her "first" fur coat!

BUT let’s be honest. You all want at least a little dirt on this bubbly and outgoing angel! So here we have it…all the DIRT we can muster up!

NM :: You seem like such a saint, what is the meanest thing you have ever done? 

MollStar :: I actually convinced my sister to take the lead role in my at-home Easter play. I got her naked, wrapped her in a sheet, and crucified her on a cross made out of sticks… oops!

NM :: You seem like such a heart breaker! How many boyfriends did you have in grade school / middle school?

MollStar :: Oh Man! Brian, Drew, Spencer, Mike, Jason, Allan, I think that might be it….. 

(And Homecoming Queen?! We bet you were breaking hearts – maybe this guy's perhaps??)

NM :: Most embarrassing moment?

MollStar :: I'm not saying my worst one out loud – let's just say I was sheltered as a child. Basically all the dumb and embarrassing things I did (and still do), have to do with me living in a bubble and being naïve. I was the girl that fell for "your epidermis is showing!" 

We hate to break it to you Moll, but we think it's showing here: (eeks!)

And there we have it. Proof that MollStar always has been, and always will be, the outgoing and smiley little blonde everyone adores!  Staying true to her roots, not much at all has changed since birth!

We love our little Ronald McDonald angel! Don't go changing!
