Hello fellow pony friends!

I'd like to introduce myself :) I'm a 30-something year old mother of 6.5 (number 7 is due in April-YAY!). My husband and I both come from seriously troubled childhoods/abusive previous marriages and have strived together to make a happier life for our children, and it's easily the very most important thing to us.

We're both authors (look for "One of a Kind" on Amazon if you're curious!), and up until recently I was the children's editor and in-house illustrator for Neverland Publishing where I worked for free doing something I cared about.

I'm certain we're not the only ones here who graduated from the school of hard knocks, and who are looking to make life more about quality and focus on the things that really matter- like family and friends.

We've had some serious struggles trying to provide for our family in this economy, especially in Idaho. Despite my husband having a bachelor's degree and years of experience selling insurance, and despite constant efforts and daily prayers, he is finding it nigh impossible to get a job, let alone one that could even come close to paying for the bare necessities of a family of 9. Everyone is struggling right now it seems, I know we're not alone in this.

I wanted to ask this loving community if they would be open to me selling My Little Pony crafts as a fundraiser in our time of need, or if this is unfeasible? I'd love to hear back from any of you, whether about this or just to say hi! I look forward to getting to know you friendly folks, take care and God Bless!
