Hi Maria,
Leticia is finally here, and I'm hugging her a million times! She's ADORABLE!!!! What a CUTE girl, and she brings MANY smiles to us, it's impossible to look at her and not smile!!! What can be best than that!!! She's fantastic!!!!! Perfect in everything, I LOVE the teeth (all 6 of them! LOL), her eyes, the hair is SO soft and, yes, CHUBBY legs!!! LOL. She's a dream come true, Maria, and I have no words to thank you for that! Bring tears to my eyes (of joy, of course!). Her outfits are fantastic too, well, everything, you have a wonderful good taste and I always trust your taste so much, she's even more amazing in person than in the pictures (and more amazing than I had dreamed her to be!) WOW, I'm in HEAVEN here!! What a lovely sweetie girl!! Yes, but I know she'll give me a lot of trouble, I can see by her eyes she's already up to something around here with the other girls! LOL. There will be many tales to tell, for sure!! And many pictures to be taken! She's fantastic, Maria!
I just wanted to let you know, I still have to go there hug her more and more! LOL.
Thanks a lot!!!!!
Love!!

Angelique is now home. This is what her mommy thinks of her:
Dear Maria,
I cannot put into words the feelings I have for this doll--even before I got to see her in person. You are truly a gifted artist, and created such a beautiful doll for me. Angelique is like an angel, and perfection in every way. I find myself just staring at her beautifully painted face. Her coloring is gorgeous, her hair is beautiful. I really do love everything about this special little girl. Each time I look at her I find another detail in her painting I may not of seen before. Angelique is exactly how I pictured her to be, only more beautiful. I am very thankful to have met you, and I feel very fortunate to have this piece of art from you. I feel very connected to Angelique. I will enjoy her always.
Thank you from my heart Maria.
love, Michele
Michele your expressions touch my heart! Thank you so much! Maria

Eveline said this about Ava Marie:
Hi Maria:
I finally had the time to really look at her Thursday night. She is just gorgeous and I love the feel of the silicone vinyl. With her open mouth, she reminds me of babies when they want you to give them something - food, etc. - and they open their mouths. Also, I'm so glad I went with that color hair. It looks wonderful on her and with her eyes. When I was combing her hair I saw that you painted her head, not just around the edges. She's wonderful and I love the way she sinks into your arms when you hold her. Thank you for your fantastic work (I expect nothing less).
Thank you Eveline! Thank you for adopting so many of my babies!!!

I loved all the items she came with.....the photos are just precious.
I love the baby Maria. She is soooo beautiful.. And her hair....she is my first painted hair doll...its beautiful. You did an excellent job with her from her hair to her toes...lol. I love the coloring, her lil face, the color of her lips. She even has a nursing blister.
Thank you so much for accepting my offer. She is even better in person!! I love her.
I will make sure to mark your name now and peek into your newest baby....I am thinking....I hope she will not be an only baby from you!!
Thank you so much and for advising me on her progress of her trip.
God bless you. He gave you a beautiful gift of bringing love and happiness to others as well as yourself. :)

Isabella arrived home today! Her mommy said this:
Hi Maria,
Isabella has arrived and I couldn't believe my eyes when I opened the box! She was more beautiful in person it actually took my breath away. You truly are a gifted woman!! I am so glad that I found you to create a reborn baby for me! I also want to thank you for all the lovely gifts that came with her. I was so excited that I ran right out to the store and bought her a bouncy chair so I could keep her in my living room where I can see her all the time. I can't wait to show her to all my friends and family. Maria I am looking at her right now and I am in love I really can't thank you enough. I guess I will have to start saving so next year I can get her a brother.
Great Big Hugs
Lisa
Thank you Lisa!! I love her new bouncy seat! She looks like she is already comfortable in her new home!!!!
Zoey's mommy said this about her:
Hello Maria
I don't know where to start, but she is gorgeous you were right when I put the money out I thought I must be crazy to spend that kind of money on a doll, but I'm glad that I bought Zoey for my Birthday present to myself. She was worth that much! I couldn't do it all the time but she is well worth it! Her lips, painted hair,ears and hands, oh my I don't know where to start! The little pinkie finger that sticks out is so cute! and the eyes oh my gosh those eyes make the whole baby!!!! Since I been buying babies from you the eyes are the most real eyes I ever saw on a reborn baby and the painted hair is so real at areas on the head you think the hair is actually growing out but its not it is gorgeous painted hair!! Maria thanks for such Beautiful babies, talk to you later from your friend Mary
Here is what Tiffani's mommy said when she received her:
Hello Maria,
Just to let you know that my daughter picked up my package today I couldn't wait to get home from work to see if it was Tiffanie. It was! She arrived safely, all in one piece! I was worried about the Christmas rush that you know how they throw packages around well anyway she's here. I opened the box and just to say you had her wrapped and packcaged excellent by the way, then I took Tiffanie out and unwraped her! Oh my eyes just looked she was absolutely gorgeous I took her and looked at her arms the veins you made are so real looking I don't know where to start you your mom and daughter are the most talented reborn artists that I know on ebay and I am honored to have you as my friend. The time you took on Tiffanie was worth the wait! You didn't go cheap on your work or outfits. The legs,arms and face, oh Maria, I just don't know what to say she is excellent, gorgeous and of all a cutie pie I looked at her for about an hour I just couldn't take my eyes off of her I would highly recommend you to anyone that ever wants a reborn doll. Before I bought Iris I wish I would have asked you about making her for me it would have been cheaper from you plus better quality work too. May God Bless you for bringing Tiffanie into my life and home. My daughter Stefanie and John say she looks so real he couldn't believe how real she looks and he also said she is very pretty and beautiful! oh by the way you can start on my Rebecca but you can take your time. Oh well Maria tell your Mom and Daughter I said hi and to have a Happy Holidays oh yea, now, I have dolls from all 3 generations you ,your mom and your daughter! God Bless all of you from your friend for always! Mary
The following two babies were adopted this week by different moms.
Jayden arrived home!!! This is the feedback I received:
I am lost for words still! I tried to get him first thing before she went to school but they were closed and she about cried! So after taking her to school I stopped by Wal-mart to waste some time and found some little Carter outfits for like $3 each, some little blankets, bibs, diapers (she wanted them also), and some pacifiers to make more to match his outfits. Then I rushed to the Post Office, opened it as fast as possible while making sure I didn't mess anything up!...Then after removing the bubble wrap and tissue paper, when I finally got to him I almost cried because he looked just like an Angel sleeping and I could not resist myself wanting to pick him up and hold him! I was speechless for a moment and just started looking at him and waiting for him to wake up and start crying for his bottle! I then put him in the box carefully, while these two people were looking at me like I was putting my child in a box and driving off! Lol! First thing after we left there my mother and I went straight to the store and bought a infant car seat, diaper bag, a large thing of infant caps of all colors, and a few other things! After we got the car seat I put little Jayden in it and packed the diaper bag! I place him in the middle of the back seat beside my son! The whole way back to my mothers, my son (4) kept asking Mommy why won't Jayden wake up and is he real! I heard that over and over until we just finally got home! Lol!...Also I couldn't help getting Hannah out of school early, I just could not wait any longer to see the look on her face the first time she got to see him!...I took him in with me so that no one would see a baby in a hot car by himself but as soon as I walked through the doors Parents, kids, and school administration swarmed me! But as soon as I told them he wasn't real half of them did not believe me and had to see me take the Pacifier out and show them he couldn't open his mouth! BTW there are a few women there who will be contacting you for one of their own!....Anyway Hannah came in the office and could see everyone around me and jetted straight to me! I wish I had a camera out at that moment!!!!! She could barely speak and wanted to leave right then so she could get away from everyone and so she could get a good look at him! She had some small tears in her eyes also at first!!!....She has still not put him down since we got home and just sits there telling him how much she loves him and just smiling in silence!....She did let me hold him a few minutes ago to go to the bathroom and I laid him on his side, tummy down and just sat there waiting on him to wake up or just move! I would have to say he is the closest thing to another child as it can get! I just want to let you know you have made my little girl have one of the best B-day's of all time! Thank you so much!!!!!!!! I will send pictures of them tomorrow when I get a chance!
.:*AMANDA*:.
Amanda, you and Hannah brought tears to my eyes!! Thank you for the lovely comments!!!

This comment is from my wonderful customers who have two babies of mine. This comment is Emmi, who is not not theirs:
Maria,
She is absolutely charming! She looks just like a little oriental girl. I enjoy viewing your babies and toddlers because your work is so realistic it amazes me every time I see it.
Keep up the good work. In our opinion there are good artists out there, but we just think you're the best!
Your South Carolina Friends,
Debbie & Tom
This is what Emmi's mommy said about her:Maria, she is just beautiful! I love her coloring. She has a real "healthy" glow about her complexion. I must tell you that I was disappointed when you told me you had to cut her hair shorter then we originally discussed. (If you remember I referred you to another Mei Ling on eBay with much longer hair.) But when I actually saw her I really am much happier with the length of this hair. I think she would be out of proportion with the longer hair and it fits her better at the shoulder length.
Thank you for her cute outfits and hair accessories. I love the ballerina outfit and shoes. I showed my co-worker her pictures that you sent and she swore that "this can't be a doll, she looks like an actual little girl". People always examine every small detail and are truly amazed.
Thanks again and I'll be talking with you.
Eveline
