Sarita

FYI: I am JUST recovering from a terrible bout of VERTIGO that had me flat on my back for over two weeks. The pending swap I had has been mailed by ME today - I was finally able to drive today! and I will go send notes to those involved as today is my first day to be able to sit in front of the computer - YEAH!!!

An eclectic crafter, mother of one beautiful daughter, living with my significant other in a little house with a small bountiful garden :) I teach English in a private school to pre-primary students (5 yr olds). I love to craft, cook, garden, listen to music, spend time with my family and swap! :)

~ My Princess is 8 yrs old and she is a very girly girl who loves her baby dolls, barbies, monster high dolls, little pet shops, music in general and One Direction in particular, dancing, swimming, singing, painting, drawing, coloring, writing - and anything related to paper like notepads, journals, pencils, pens, markers, stickers, etc. - Like mother, like daughter :)
