I am very easy to please when it comes to swapping, because I just love getting mail!

There is something about paperworks that I really enjoy, I love making postcards. I love off the beaten path kind of artwork. Bought things are nice, but I can appreciate an original piece of work even if there are mistakes! If we are in a swap together I would much prefer your own made pieces than something that was purchased at the store

I love anything reptile, anything amphibian. Anything animal.

I have two children who also love to craft.

I live in Texas, and my family and I enjoy the outdoors as much as we can.

My family really loves sports, and each Spring and Summer we usually enjoy Softball and Volleyball together

Harry Potter is one of my favorite book series, Count of Monte Cristo is my next favorite book. Anne of Green Gables was a nice series, and I have a couple books left until I finish it. I like the author Jack London, his book The Sea Wolfe and The Call of the Wild are on my top ten.

Movies and TV shows: Breaking Bad, House, Dexter, The Land Before Time, The Office, Cooking shows. I really only watch kids shows now, but sometimes I can sneak in a late night episode of something after the kiddos fall asleep :)

I enjoy many styles of art, from dark and grungy works to pastel and kawaii

Pokemon has a place in my heart, and I enjoyed watching the shows when I was a child. I still enjoy their cutesy looks today, both my sons enjoy them.

I enjoy re-using old postcards and old stamps on my paperworks

My favorite color is Green.

I enjoy snacking on chocolate, and trying new kinds of snacks. My favorite kinds of foods are Vietnamese, Thai, and my Grandpa's home cooking!! Nothing like his cornbread with buttermilk. I enjoy Mint tea as well as Rooibos tea. My MIL introduced me to Jamaica tea, and now I'm hooked.

(Please be considerate and put some effort into your art, I've gotten some that are just insulting. C'mon guys! Be proud of everything you send to someone else, that way if they don't like it atleast you know you would have wanted to receive it!)

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RATING FROM ME.

If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be too cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down. --Annie Dillard

I am adding a small piece to my profile for my kids Devon and Diego, including their interests. Anyone is more than welcome to request our address for kid swaps.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My name is Devon, I am 6 years old. I would like to get involved in swaps and pen paling!

We have a Puppy Dog named Coco, who is so much fun to play with, even though she jumps on us a lot. We live in Texas and enjoy the outdoors as much as possible! We have an awesome Dad! I hope to play soccer again this fall.

Hi my name is Diego I'm 4 years old, but soon I will be 5! I AM SO EXCITED TO BE 5

I love the Cat in the Hat, such a fun cat. I love Pokemon. I love Super Wings they are super silly and fun. My family is very involved in Sports, my Dad loves football, soccer, volleyball, and baseball. I am hoping that this year I will be playing t-ball again in the fall!

We love getting mail at our house, its always a big celebration when something has my name on the envelope! I am so excited to make friends swapping!

We don't play a lot of video games, but Mario has made a big impression in my house. I loved playing Mario Cart when I was younger. Devon loves watching my husband play Mario on the Wii. I was very very into Pokemon when I was a kid, and I still enjoy them today. Devon and Diego LOVE Pokemon, they play Pokemon Go with us around town.

I would really like for my kids to get involved with writing, I am hopeful he will develop a passion for paper crafts and hand written items like I have. I also hope to home-school my children, and Swap-bot is an awesome tool to have. The ability to be in touch with people local and around the world will help him learn about different cultures,near and far, outside of a book!

We enjoy cutesy things! (If you can't tell by my part of the profile!) We will enjoy anything you send us, and we are excited to send mail too!
