Thank you so much for playing and sharing at the Lily Pad!. <br /><br />On a related note, Brenda, I'm sorry to see that you're having to leave your American friends, but so happy that your family will be getting what is, I'm sure, a more satisfactory arrangement for quality time together! This is what's so great about the Internet - we can all still visit no matter where we live!

Wow-that is so conflicting for you....on one hand you must be so happy to heading back to your home but on the other hand it must be so hard, so difficult to leave your friends and the new home that you made in Texas. I am so happy you are planning on keeping up with your blog....that way we can still be "neighbors"....and keep up with each other.
