Rea



Every ounce of extra energy I have these days has gone into trying to figure out how to keep Rea's creative endeavors channeled into something non-destructive, yet still quasi-satisfying for her. This comes only after finding Rea's "autographed letter to her fans" written on every book that she owns (and some of Daddy's important ones), most of the magazines in the house, and ALL of the empty notebooks that could be found.

Her latest is her new fashion line for Barbie who, if you look closely, is sporting a nifty tattoo design on her face and legs, compliments of Rea's Sharpie. She decided that Scuba Diving Barbie needed more clothes (she DOES only have a bathing suit), so she "hand-painted the fabric" (Magic Marker versus Mead notebook paper) and whipped her up a new little cocktail dress. I cannot keep enough scotch tape in the house. Please note the cool side pony tail, which Rea insisted on wearing to school herself one day last week. I'm still not sure how she talked me into that one...
