Oh Donna! I've been rocking out to Chris Daughtry ever since I bought his CD. Amazing isn't it. Got any favoirite songs? I'm loving #2 and #4! Have fun in Tampa!

Have a very safe trip! Can't wait to see you this weekend too! :-) I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! Hopefully the weather will cooperate on your 'free' time to enjoy the area.
And didn't know you were an only child... I'm having serious issues with my daughter being an only child (i had always thought I'd have two, but that's not going to happen). Any advice / tips / thoughts you (or anyone else reading this) have on raising an ONLY child?

Have so much fun FL with Ali...wish MN was closer so I could go take the classes from the two of you. Hoping to see you in April when you are here, though. Have a great time!

You're too funny, doing your pose. I'll never forget.
I would tear off my left arm to hang with both you & Ali on the same day. i would even drive you around all day, doin the town. Sigh.
