I have to give a huge thanks to Joel and Camelle Chaney of Dewisplear for allowing this delightful girl to come live with me. She has been a joy since she walked in the door! After her isolation period she blended into the household like she'd been born here; even those strange Dog Creatures gave her little pause ;-) She loves to snuggle and purr and also gets very excited when the toys come out for playtime.

Just look at those gorgeous amber eyes! Her eye-set and expression appealed to me immediately :-) I love how her cheeks bubble out when she sees a toy. She has a wonderful chunky little body with good boning and a nice clear pattern. This doll will make a wonderful contribution to my breeding program!
Her name is a combo-homage to the witch/vampire names of this Dewisplear line and the Native American theme that I use. Midewikwe is a female Shaman or Medicine Woman, the "white magic" equivalent of a Wiccan practitioner.
From Wikepedia:
The preverb mide can be translated as "mystery," "mysterious," "spiritual," "sanctimonious," "sacred," or "ceremonial", depending on the context of its use. The derived verb midewi, thus means "be in/of mide." The derived noun midewiwin then means "state of being in midewi." Often mide is translated into English as "medicine" (thus the term midewinini "medicine-man") though mide conveys the idea of a spiritual medicine, opposed to mashkiki that conveys the idea of a physical medicine. A practitioner of Midewiwin is called a midew, which can also be rendered as mide'o... both forms of the word derived from the verb midewi, or as a medewid, a gerund from of midewi. Specifically, a male practitioner is called a midewinini ("midew man") and a female practitioner a midewikwe ("midew woman").
Due to the body-part medial de'
meaning "heart" in the Anishinaabe language,
"Midewiwin" is sometimes translated as "The Way of the Heart."
I am so tickled with my
Wiki, she's a joy in the house.
She does seem to fit perfectly the phrase "Way of the Heart"
Now if I can only teach her to lay on my lap rather than on my breasts...
