But considering that they are run by the government, I am surprised that the trains even move at all. However, I would still opt for the train instead of flying.

Of course, this was a traumatic life-changing event, but it was somehow made easier when he received a get well card from a neighborhood boy. After he opened the card, it simply stated, "I'm sorry it happened." We still share laughs about it to this day...and share the sentiment whenever life throws us a curve.<br /><br />My friend, I'm sorry it happened.Water Logged Caninehttp://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ul8VgHojN7U/Sm8qtwuv1ZI/AAAAAAAARPM/eeBE3Cmm0X0/s1600-h/25_extremely_rare_star_wars_photos_3_20090727_1026060205.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32194857.post-39271778424961000112010-04-20T07:57:29.435-04:002010-04-20T07:57:29.435-04:00What Kaylen and Mrs. Hall said about the parents!!...What Kaylen and Mrs. Hall said about the parents!!<br /><br />And oh, God - I'd have given up my own mother, too.

You have the freedom to highly dislike those kids and wish horrible things upon them for being noisy kids who are making you miserable, whereas she is bound to love them at all times. It's hard being a mom.Lifeofkaylenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470854343779969623noreply@blogger.com
