Thank you Secret Pal, meeting good friends, and a funny story...

Thank you again to my secret pal....what an amazing piece of art to hang in Chynna's room, and the frog on it is amazing....I love looking at it on Chynna's wall (you are amazing, as always)...isn't it great?


Also, some good friends of ours are in town, Amy, Michael, and their daughter LynnMarie....we had such an amazing time meeting Lynn Marie and seeing them again (so glad they get down here to Orlando), and we got to see Don, Be, and JMei...we had a great time!!




Now onto my funny story....tonite when I got home from my Mom's, I walked in the door, closed the door behind me and felt something in my hair....I about had a heart attack....a frog had jumped into my hair (now mind you I didn't feel the frog jump into my hair) and jumped off my head onto the floor (somewhere)...I can't find him now, he must be hiding from me (cuz I did freak, hey I didn't know it was a frog, I didn't know what it was) or hiding amongst all the frogs I have in my house....I hope tonite when I am sleeping he doesn't decide to join me in my bed....

34 months down...

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more

today we have been logged in for 34 months....and got an email from our agency that China has put an indefinite hold on matching because of the swine flu....one step forward and then we have to hold that dance step for awhile...lots of road blocks to our Chynna, but we will prevail and eventually bring her home...

We are also renewing our papers with USCIS for the third time (hence the suitcase of money above, thought it was fitting)....wonder how many more times we are going to have to do this??? once, twice, dare I say three more times???

Wacky Wed...what does your butt say about you??

I guess this means my butt talks about me to others??? hehe...




Your Butt Says You're Laid Back



You are an easygoing, trusting person. You don't get too worked up, because everything usually works out in life.



You are genuine and humble. You believe that there's more to you (and other people) than just looks.



You are drawn toward close, one-on-one relationships. You crave a partner - romantic or otherwise.



You are outgoing and confident. You are proud of who you are, and you are brutally honest.



You tend to be a serious, straight laced kind of person. It takes you a while to warm up and let loose.
