I am a woman of faith and believe that I have been blessed with the ability to enjoy life's simple pleasures. With the digital era making it much more affordable, I can finally pursue my long-time interest in photography.

I love to laugh and I make a conscience effort to find something to laugh about everyday. It makes my heart smile to see others laughing too. I am a hugger. I love hugs, I love to give 'em and I love to get 'em. I think God created hugs so that everyone would have a gift to give regardless of their circumstances because hugs are free to give and free to get. So if we ever meet just remember that I warned you!!

The name chinadoll has nothing to do with my nationality. As my father always told it, when I was born the doctor and all the nurses called me the little china doll. I reminded them of the dolls whose faces were made of china. Since I've been given an opportunity for a new beginning, as if I've been born again, I thought the name was a perfect fit.

I'm happiest when outdoors, surrounded by family and the glory of nature.
Keep a smile on your face and laughter in your heart. ~ PEACE TO ALL! SmileyCentral.com

    "chinadoll is a prime example of the best side of Flickr! She is lacking only one thing....self-confidence. I hope that will change as she will no doubt be inundated with positive reinforcement based on her photostream and generosity. She recently stepped up out of the shadows and answered a challenge of sorts.....I was surprised to learn after that she had reservations about her abilities.....she sure shouldn't! New & Learning is a better group because Paula is a part of it!"
