There
is a story behind little Miss Grace. As I
mentioned in my introduction I teach dollmaking
classes in my studio. Grace's Mom and her
Grandmother became students in early January
2003. At that time they proudly announced
that there was going to be a baby sometime
in July. It was with great caring and interest
that the class and I all watched Mom's tummy
getting bigger and bigger - then we learned
that it was to be a baby girl and tried to
help decide on this baby's name. Grace's
Mom came to doll class the week before she
was born. She was obviously going to have
this baby any minute and was very uncomfortable
- we teased her but I think each one of us
was secretly watching her out of the corner
of our eyes. I made sure no other students
were parked behind Grandma's car just in
case a fast trip to the hospital was in order.
Little Grace was born a few day later on
July 14/02 and came to visit us at doll class
2 days later. We all fell in love instantly
and knew this little girl was a special part
of Wednesday evening doll class. |
