Proud Papa brags

[vortex]

My youngest daughter, Melanie, is just finishing her latest stint as a make-up artist for a movie shoot in Wales! I'm so proud of her courage in chasing her dream and snagging it.

I certainly never thought her love of make-up would lead to a career! Stupid me!

Her filmography: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2012809/

She's only been at it a relatively short while so she's still struggling but she's doing what she loves!

OK, enough bragging about my kids.

Congrats on your daughter enjoying her occupation!

My daughter loves make-up too and I'll show her this thread so she can realize other's have followed their dreams irregardless of what mom and dad think is best for her! :laugh:

That's great! I love stories like this. My kids are too young to do any chasing (barely talking) yet

Damn straight. Congrats to your daughter. Following your dreams takes courage, and tenacity. I always find it amusing how parents can tell exactly how future events will turn out when a child tries to follow their dreams. You would think with that sort of psychic ability, they would all be independantly wealthy.

Thanks for ALL your well-wishes!

Many's the time I told her to put the make-up away and finish her homework if she ever wants to make something of herself. Parents do the best they can but, truth be told, we're mostly shootin in the dark. Things have a way of working out sometimes.

I just hope her success continues until she's made enough of a name for herself that she has SOME work security and makes decent money.
