Nie Nie on Oprah

Have you heard of the Nie Nie Dialogues? If you haven't checked into her blog, you should take a look. It's written by Stephanie Nielson. She writes the simplicities of her life as a mother. Often times when I am reading her blog I tear up. She says things so simply and is so raw about it. She and her husband were in a terrible plane crash just over a year ago. More than 80% of her body was burned. She still writes on her blog, about the pains of physical therapy and looking in the mirror at a diferent face. Because of her story and auctions held to raise money for her medical bills are what inspired me to start sewing on my own which lead to my Etsy shop. Well, guess what? I moved into the ward she and her family lives in!! I feel like I know a celebrity. Silly, I know. I even gushed the first time I met her. But for the first time, I'll actually know someone who is going to appear on Oprah! Yes, she'll be on Oprah tomorrow (Wednesday, October 8th). So tune in! I'll be there, via TV land, with a bowl of popcorn (or maybe not the popcorn) participating!
