A bit about me: I'm a WAHMama of four, wife of one, and I don't normally party, but I had to make an exception here.
I'm an independent designer of children's couture (Sweet Tea Boutique), and I'm branching out into etsy (soon! be on the lookout!) with my love for all things artsy.

cautious, conscientious, promising
resilient, deliberate, wry
Okay, now you! Either include your answer in a comment, or if you're feeling shy today, you can e-mail me instead. And to clarify, this game is open to everyone, whether you're ultimate-blog-partying with us or not. :) Yay!

So nice to "meet you!"
O.k...gonna try not to be a party-pooper and actually do the game:
Childhood: cautious, fearful, resiliant
Now: playful, hopeful, courageous
Phew! That didn't hurt too much!
I love this blogging get-to-gether! What a wonderful way to meet other bloggers. I don't usually party either.....but one can hardly ignore this grand event!
Stop by my place when you have a moment. I may just steal your game idea for tomorrow's post! (If that's o.k.!)

Hi Nic! It's your twin, separated at birth! ;)
OK, hmm, you're making me use my noggin - that's a little much to ask but I'll give it a whirl -
Childhood: timid, quiet, obedient
Now: gregarious, goofy, confident
From reading the other comments, it looks like overall we seem to be happier with ourselves and our lives -- way to go!!! :)
Hey, I don't speak Portuguese either! How lovely to find myself another kindred spirit.
Here's my answers:
Childhood: Withdrawn, Fearful, Confused
Now: Wry, Joyful, Contemplative
Bit of a change, eh? =)

"What three words best describe you during your childhood...and what three describe you now?"
Hmm...
child = bookish, freckled, outgoing
adult = bookish, nurturing, word-lover

Hi, Nic! Nice to meet you... Your kids are simply gorgeous, and I love your stuff over at sweetteaboutique.net !!! Thanks for visiting my blog the other day.
Hallooo! I want to join in the party games, especially since I dropped by on the party express AND my carpal tunnels are finally feeling better.
Childhood: scared, lonely, protective
Now: Happy, safe, loved
I own my own sewing business, but nothing in the way of yours! Stop on by The Estrogen Files sometime!

I just don't know about those three words. I mean I'd really have to think and think and I'll probably stay up half the night thinking about it and not be satisfied with anything I come up - although I suppose perfectionist might pop up somewhere among those 6 words. LOL!
Just popping in for the party! I grew up just north of where you are, and now live just south! Gorgeous clothes; gorgeous kids!
When I was a kid: energetic, cooperative, imaginative
Now: busy, curious, optimistic
Please come visit me at womanwithmanyhats.com (not my blank Blogger page), where I have festive exploding bubbles up for the party!
