I read something everyday about Disney to help plan! I want to maximize our fun!!! <strong>Avitable</strong>, You are absolutely correct! I apologize for not adding that into the total. Your $200 is going directly to Cam and Teenie for souvenirs. Each girl is get $100 to spend on whatever they wish. Of course I will be there to help them spend it wisely. I have the feeling they will want to get some more pins for their lanyards for one! So yes...$5,000 was raised. <strong>3T</strong>, I'm amazed by the many bloggers who pulled together...just amazed. Aw, thanks for your vote of confidence about my parenting :oops: I'm blushing. <strong>Miss Ann</strong>, I've never been to Jamaica but Dude and I love this coffee called "Jamaician Me Crazy". OMG, it's fabulous. Yes, that's what Teeny said...she's a world traveler ya know. Good God woman...my big ass in polka dots is not a pretty thing!! <strong>Tug</strong>, I've been wearing the necklace every day since I received it. Oh, I hope the two weeks get here soon! <strong>Girl</strong>, Unfortunately here they call it an IEP ;) and both kids have one. The oldest has one for some special needs but she is also an honor roll student. Sigh...I wish it was as that to boycott. <strong>Hilly</strong>, Thanks for being excited for us!!! Oh, I'm not so amazing...my daughters are the ones who are amazing for being so strong for making it through so much over the past four years! <strong>annie</strong>, You are correct...it is completely our fault for becoming so dependent on the cheap products and in some respects we are forced economically to buy them because U.S. products are more expensive to produce due to high labor costs. We have to do something about regulating what's in these products though. There has to be more safety testing and more regulation about what comes into the country. Unfortunately I don't see that happening. <strong>Lisa</strong>, I love Etsy. I think it's a great place to find some of the most unique things. <strong>BB</strong>, I plan on taking a TON of photos!!! <strong>jane</strong>, What's more amazing is that she made the decision to look at where products are made on her own and decide what to do on her own. I commend her for that! Thanks...we plan to have a ton of fun!!! Karen, Thanks! I read something everyday about Disney to help plan! I want to maximize our fun!!!

It doesn't mean we hate Chinese people, that's ridiculous! Get a grip people - the thing we don't want to "tolerate" is lead on our children's toys or "maybe fish" in the candy, duh.

They don't call it just an IEP anymore because that's what the dumb kids have. Teenie would be soooooooo mad if she knew! (I know because I used to have GIEPs and it made me seriously angry when teachers forgot the "G." The G is the most important part!) haha Anyways... SO excited for you guys to go to Disney!!! :smile: And about China. Screw that. I'm boycotting them too and so are some of my friends. Tell Teenie to start a revolution amongst her young friends! Bring China to its knees! ;-) Girlinthecrosswalks last blog post..<a href="http://girlinthecrosswalk.wordpress.com/2008/04/19/i-am-doing-other-things/" rel="nofollow">I am doing other things…</a> Geeeeez Lisa… it’s called a GIEP.
