Hello... My name is Mary and I'm 38 years old. I became a widow in 2010, after 10 years of marriage. We have 3 lovely children... A son who is 11 years old and is in Middle School and loves to draw. A daughter who is 4 years old and is very sassy and is obsessed with doggies... And a daughter who is 2 and loves anything soft and cuddly, a tomboy, and is very sassy.

Other members include our 9 year old tabby and our 12.5 year old black kitty (who recently passed away on April 9, 2013).

I have been an artist since I was a little child. Creativity comes natural to me. My biggest passions are cross stitching, collaging on canvas and journals, and creating ATC's.

I love hiking and going to the beach. I try to visit the beach at least once a year.
