Michele you are too funny with the Rick comment...LOL

Daria likes the Wiggles but only the them music after that she isn't interested. Maybe when she gets a little older.

Oh how fun will the circus be...I can't wait! I am such the big kid.

No fair on the fringe benefits..LOL I live close to Chicago..well not really but it was a nice try huh?

wow Kim I guess I didn't realize there were 1 trip regions...I guess it is really 2 trips but that is only if you can't stay and wait out the 10 days..right?

I couldn't imagine having to leave Emery either...that will be hard!!!!!!

How come you still can't post pics?

Julia starts school tomorrow. I think I need triple prozac right now. Tonight is "meet the teacher". However, I'm taking her over in a few minutes because the teacher needs to know about this child before school starts. I think the principal has briefed her, but I want her to meet Julia in person. Will let you know how it works!

Vicki, I loved the pictures of your vacation! I miss going to the shore so it is nice to see pictures. Where do you live? I grew up in Pa, in Chester County.
