rose1717 It is sad that I live in the US and totally agree with you. We will probably never get to go to Disney either because we will not be flying and subject our children to go through that. My son is old enough that he would get the full pat down and I will not...

rose1717 I think that is so nice that you still walk with your daughter. I hope that once in a while my kids will want to with me when they are older, but it is ok if they don't.

rose1717 You are so lucky to live on a farm and be surrounded by nature. I didn't know that about acorns needed to be kept cold. We will try this for this year and plant them next year. Thanks for the info.

rose1717 I had always hoped so about my MIL, but her son and I have been married for 14 years and she hasn't even tried to change her attitude towards me until my husband told her that he will not be allowing it. Unfortuantly I suffered years of her comments and mean...
