~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~PLEASE READ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Taking other people's photos and referring to them as your own is a despicable thing to do. If you do that, you oughta be ashamed of yourself!

 

Also, the reason my photos are private has nothing to do with the above statement. It has everything to do with my wanting to limit who has access to my photos/my dolls/my randomness/my life in general. I do not immediately mark people as a contact who mark me as one. Please don't take offense to that, I've had some issues in the past and unfortunately try really hard to limit any more of that.

 

If I have you marked as a contact, please understand that I sincerely hope that you are not viewing my pictures or information and then using that in a negative way. That's really uncalled for. Really.

 

I am a thirty three year old married mother of three! Two biological kids and one child we adopted from Ethiopia!!!

 

I stay at home, and maybe that's why I got a sudden interest in this.

RIght now, I have:

Save the Animals (custom)

Lea

Benny

 

My wish list for Pullips is:

My wish list for Blythe:

to stop buying them for now

 

My wish list for Lati:

all of them.

This woman is a lovely person. Through the smokescreens of online nonsense, I know i can always count on effiethedal (ok the person behind it) for a honest candid opinion and comment. Although I do not have interest in pullips or dal but somehow i've come to know her and she is a lovely, honest and yet level headed and responsible person through my correspondences with her. I think she is a great example to all, a fine art of balancing, the role of that of a mother, a wife, a home maker and not forgetting herself as well, and having the ability and time to indulge in her hobbies. I find her a great example esp when it comes to responsible spending! Her photos also bring great humour which i enjoy a lot." Thank you for being you!

Just like the Sun shining it’s beautiful, warming rays over the Earth...Shawna does the same thing for me, and many others with her funny photo stories, delightful comments, but most of all...her kind, caring and generous heart. I know Shawna’s loving heart has touched the life of at least one lucky boy...the one she and her husband adopted! It takes a special person [who already has two children of her own] to reach out and sacrifice a number of material things...to bring a child from another country into her home and provide that child with all the things most of us take for granted. I am truly blown away by this amazing woman. I really cannot use enough adjectives to describe the kind of person Shawna is. All I know is she brightens my days, lifts me up when I am down, makes me smile when life is overwhelming, and listens when I need a shoulder to cry on. I am proud to count her as a dear friend on FlickR and in life. Thank you Shawna, for who you are...a bright Star in a big, dark Galaxy. Much love, my friend, Sher

this girl's heart is so big she could teach us all a thing or two about how to love! Shawna is one of those people who inspires me by being able to juggle 3 kids and a million friends and make it look like she's having fun the whole time. One day I hope I can give this girl a BIG hug!

Shawna rocks. She is the kindest most nicest dolly friend that a girl could ask for! In real life, too! She is always so nice to answer all my questions about doll related things. Her photostories and pictures entertain me (and crack me up) when I would otherwise be going cross eyed doing important accounting type stuff at work! Her dolls are by far the most fun bunch: full of personality and spunk! Just ilke Shawna. I consider myself super lucky that Shawna was my first dolly friend and she lives near me! And she is a great example of what the dolly world should be like: kind, thoughtful, generous and a hoot!! xoxo
