Maybe we can learn a lesson from the Chinese Bamboo Tree seed...

Julie, I WAS just thinking of you...with your BIG day less than a week away, I was wondering how you were going to celebrate it! Then, I checked my email and found your note...and after reading that energized message, I realize that, for you, everyday is a celebration! :) As it should be.

May I suggest that you go have a cup of that hot chocolate that Dien is offering the guests at sowpub. (see post above) I'm sipping mine now and it is making me giddy. What did you put in our hot chocolate Dien? :)

You'll be hearing from me really soon Julie.
Take care!
Amber
