When you live with an open heart, expect joyful things to happen.
Life is full of surprises and everybody has a story. I have a knack for meeting some interesting and unusual people but the one common denominator is that they all have something to teach me.
Like the time I walked Jia Jia on his 13th birthday (February 14th, 2016) and literally from out of nowhere we met this fun girl Kellie with her two puppet friends and a photographer who was trying to capture shots for Kellie’s new album cover. They expressed interested in using Jia Jia for the cover (as of course, he’s model cover material) and the puppets started talking to him on their own. Kellie didn’t say a word. We were mesmerized! It definitely added some magic to the day and made it an extra special birthday for Jia Jia. And it reminded me of living at home when my brother and I played with a human-like ventriloquist puppet that we would talk to…but it never spoke back.
And it went to prove that my dolls really did speak to me when I was a child.
About Kellie
Ventriloquist Kellie Haines started talking to her stuffed animals at an early age and when she was 8 years old they started talking back! A multi-talented entertainer with a background in theatre, clowning, singing and dance, Kellie and her puppet pals have amazed and delighted audiences of all ages throughout North America.
Yeah; I expected that!

What can I say?
