she's my daughter and i'll brag if i want to....

post title sang in my best lesley gore voice.....hehehe

hey everyone, i am soooooo excited for my daughter, michelle!

today, i went over to her apartment to drop aaron off for a few days as he's on school holidays and, while there, i helped michelle set up her very first ETSY listing! as you all know, michelle is still recovering from a severe whiplash injury and can no longer work so, not to be defeated, in the past six months she launched herself in a totally new direction....sewing and painting! michelle joined blogland just a couple of months ago but has been a little shy so i thought i would post about her new adventure here. if you have the time, i would so appreciate it if you popped on over to her blog - raggedy ruckus - to welcome her to blogland.

blogging truly has made a huge and positive difference to my own life as i've met so many wonderful people and i'm hoping michelle will enjoy blogland as much as i do.

Wow! What amazing dolls! Her paintings look very similar to your style...did you teach her, or does this amazing talent run in the family? Thanks for the introduction...I wish her much success!
