Listen to This :)

This is a call to a radio station in TX. I see why Jesus teaches us to be like the little children

Ready To Blog Again

Well I am ready to Blog again though my heart is still in mourning. Korban turned five on June 8th. I can not believe how time passes so quickly. I have a theroy using Enstines theroy of relativity and traveling at the speed of light and how time sppeds up etc on that but I will save that for another time I suppose. Back to Korbey!
He had a very happy birthday and racked in the cash! I was surprised how much money a five year old can get these days! He got 87.00 dollars!!! I don't get any where near that for my birthday! I haven't gotten that much in my last three bithdays combined! Holy heck! He is much loved! Plus he got about a million gifts in additon to the cash! Youth is truely wasted on the young! I let him spend 12.oo dollars at the dollar store and used the rest to buy him a few "pricy" gifts as instructed by the money senders. The money spent at the dollar store made Korban happier then Disneyland! He is all ready starting to see the "happiness" money can buy. He hasn't figured out that it isn't the kind that lasts, but one day he will.
Still waiting for our visas. I sometimes think we will never make it to Australia. And PS, they don't celebrate American holidays (who knew, doesn't EVERYONE want to be American?!?!) only Australian ones so I get confused! For instance when it was around Korban's birthday it was the queen's birthday and a public holiday there. The queen is SOOOOOOOOO old! She's like 105! Okay more like 80 something! And then Father's Day is in September not June! And no Thanksgiving! I would take that holiday if I was another country just so I can eat lots of lovely decadent foods with no explination or social scorn!
It will be wierd not having fireworks in July. I doubt they teach American history in school there since we don't learn Australian history here so I am going to have to teach Korban about it. Like Adam Sandler said in one of his movies "Are you too good for your home!" Korban can't forget his place of origin! I won't let him! He may adopt an Australian accsent but I will let him and any future children know that half of them came from America and is proud of it! I don't know if it's huberous or just being proud of where I came from, but I love being American. Not until I am 59 will I have lived in AU longer then America, it could be 60 depending on when our visa is granted if at all (sigh).
Last paragraph. Korban asks me all kinds of silly questions like "Do chickens hiccup", is that normal??? I swear I never asked questions like that! How would you even get to that question in your though process! And PS no one knows for sure! There is lots of believers both ways! Something about anatomy of a chicken seems to suggest they can't. Plus I am thinking how can you hiccup with a beak???? Now you can google it and wake-up at 3am going back and fourth on the opinions!

Yours, K.
