Syl,

Have any room in one of the bags for me? OMG, I am SO jealous!!! Although I
searched and searched for plane tickets to go to the conference, it's just not
gonna happen this year. Believe it or not it's way cheaper for us to fly to
Hawaii. I'm not going there either, but I was shocked at the difference in
fares.

Have a great summer in paradise!!!!

Rhonda

Syl,

You poor soul. I was just thinking of responses to each of those questions
and came up with one word you could use for each one.....well. The word well,
can be a statement, a question, or in contemplation of ones thoughts. So if for
every question they ask, what if all you answered with was....well? You could
even say it and nod your head depending on the question and simply answer
with the retorical ...well.

Just a thought.

Try to have fun in paradise anyway, I'm still jealous....

Rhonda - Who just thought of something else you could tell your in-laws...For
the bargain price of getting my hiney to Hawaii, I'd be happy to answer each
of their questions....well. LOL

Thanks, Rhonda! Well just might work. After all, it's at least as expressive as mil's "oh" It's really only first 8 days until Gary arrives that worry me. All in all, they're great parents and she was a huge help when I was on bedrest before Dan's birth. Of course, that was before I lost my mind and kept the boys home from school!
