Oh, She Models, Too

Many of you know how active and successful my granddaughter is in academic and athletic endeavors, but have I told you that she is a model, also? She modeled for a Canadian company when she was about 5 months old. They manufactured organic clothing for infants and toddlers. Lately, she has been modeling for Iviva, a maker of ice skating warmup clothing. In the photo she is wearing one of the jackets I recently purchased for her at her regular practice. This is not a modeling photo, but all Iviva photos are of her on the ice. What doesn't this kid do?

You are so proud of your granddaughter. She looks so sweet, too. It is amazing that she has so much modeling experience already. Does she ever think about being a fashion model?

@DianneN Do you know why your granddaughter is so elegant? You shall look at yourself and you will know why

The age doesn't take away a true beauty from an elegant person.

Thank you! Fashion model - Not at all. Figure skating is her passion, and her mother wouldn't allow it. Too many crazy stage moms.

She is very busy, but plays with her friends on the weekends or does things with the family. I don't know where she gets her energy or enthusiasm, but I wish I had some.

@DianneN I was in the fashion business for about 40 years. What was his or her name?

None of our family are Canadians. She lives in Manhattan. I once bought a ball gown in the USA from a Canadian designer.

@MarshaMusselman Thank you. I found out how costly they were when I bought her four thinking they couldn't possibly be that much. They're so tiny. Lol!

If her success continues, before long you'll be scheduling visits with her through her agent. All kidding aside, it is wonderful that she has so much going for her. I'm sure she gets her talent and good looks from her grandma.

Lol! No one knows where she gets her talent. She gets her brains from her father, although her mom is impressive in that department, too.

She enjoys everything. It's her choice as to what she wants to do, just as long as it's wholesome and safe. Her mommy is always by her side and gives the OK or not.

Many thanks, Julia. She seems to be the center of attention wherever she goes. Some people are like that. Not me. I'm rather on the shy side, but force myself to be more personable.
