it reads like a poem...very appropriate. Thanks for the Spanish poem in my birthday card. It sounds lovely, though I have to admit, I don't really know what it says. My Spanish speaking husband is helping...

my favorite color is green said...

Heavens Erin! I loved that post. It was so so fun. Maybe I will create a similar post. It would take a while to think of 100 things but fun to try. I love you and want to see you at Christmas time. When will you be in the bless-ed state of Utah so we can reunite with Mel? I know you will have family and friends to see but I'd like to be on your "must see while in Utah" list, please. Okay, I love you, eat sushi (you don't need to save any for me, though, because I do not like it)
