Welcome!

Welcome to Truly Blessed!  This blog is about the happenings of my calico critters made by Calico Critters®.  I am writing the posts as if they come from members of the family and sometimes the posts will be from "facebook pages" that they have.  You can meet the family I have piled together by going to the "Our Family" tab.  They are a homeschooling, Christian, family and have 30 children.  Four of them are biological and 26 of them are adopted from various Countries.  I love playing with my calico critters by myself or with friends.
Who am I?  I'm Ellen.  I'm fourteen years old, lover of horses, and a child of God.
I hope you enjoy reading this blog!  Please comment on anything you like!  I always love to see what you think about my posts.  Thanks!
God's Blessings,
Ellen

    1. Hi Skylar!
      Sorry about that! His name is Peter. (Yes, I have two Peters and they're both dogs) he is their pet and farm dog. Dennis also has a cat, I will tell you the story of how he got it next time I see you, but I don't have a picture of it. It is kind of strange. :-) I will tell you all about him when I see you!

    4. Oh my word! I was looking on the Calico Critters website earlier and... IS JULIA A KANGAROO?! All this time I thought she was a bunny! ~Skylar

      Delete
    5. Yes, Julia is a kangaroo. :-) I'll have to go through the line sometime and tell you how I picture them!

      Delete
    6. Wait, if Julia is a kangaroo, where is her tail? Does she even have one? Because if she does, I can't see it. ~Skylar

    7. Oh, and Alexa e-mailed Cilla yesterday! :-) ~Skylar

    8. Yes, Julia has a tail. It's rather small for her size, but it's a tail! I should tell you though, that Preston lost his tail.

      Delete
    9. Preston lost his tail? Poor Preston.... I actually wasn't aware that he ever DID have a tail... poor kitty.... What happened? ~Skylar

      Delete
    10. I'll tell you the story when I see you next......and how I picture them!
      And I'll tell you my first Calico Critter family story then too!! :-)

    11. Awesome! Can't wait! :-) Wait, what do you mean by saying you'll tell me how you picture them? ~Skylar

      Delete
  6. I know this is random, but just 'cause I'm curious, what was your first Calico critter family? ~Skylar

  7. Wait second, if you have Julia, why don't you have the rest of the kangaroos? Did you just get her separately? (My goodness, what's up with all the questions about Julia? Well, I guess I DO really like the kangaroos...) :-)
