Comments:
And now you've gone home the other way. If by some miracle Air Canada managed to take off and land on time, you should be waiting at the carousel just about now. Aunt Sam hadn't even noticed she had the wrong bag. Good thing your sister checked. Aunt Gene found your sunglasses this morning. I'll send them south as soon as Sam gets them to me.
Max is confused again. Mummy came home all alone. :( Wonder what he'll think when AJ comes for a sleepover. ;)

Miss you already
luv
 
Dear Mum;

Send Smarties

Love
Becky

Well, this Canadian in particular is living with her American husband and 2 Saint Bernard dogs, and trying to get a home based business with Watkins up and running!
If you're interested in starting your own Watkins home based business, take a look at My Shopping and Information Site. Watkins ships anywhere in North America.
