About Me

Please check out my website: I write all about my crazy experiences with my family, pets and the world at www.skillywidden.blogspot.com.

I am a 30 years old, a stay-at-home mom of two boys ages three years and nine months. I live in a zoo with two cats, one rabbit, one dog, and a husband.

I love children's literature, and hope to be a children's book author or children's librarian someday. I love pretty, vintage patterns and lots of color. A good idea of things I love would be http://theblackapple.typepad.com/insideablack_apple/, or www.anthropologie.com. I love fairies (not the cheesy cherub or angel type) and nature themes: trees, owls, mushrooms, birds, etc. I love to garden, though I admit I haven't done any since my difficult pregnancy, and my son is now nine months old.
I'm completely new to this swap thing, so bear with me!

Thanks! I don't know why, but it always seems like my TX swaps take forever to get to people. I think they make a detour through Mexico!

skillywidden on Mar 30, 2008:

Oh, yes, I got it. I'm sorry! I've been off of the computer a lot, so I haven't rated, yet. I'm going to right now.

neopostretro on Mar 30, 2008:

I hope that CD made it to you, but I sometimes wonder with our postal service here in TX. Please let me know if I need to resend it.

melody25 on Dec 8, 2007:
