And if she is lucky she never loses her vocation because the birth of her grandchildren keep her in the union, and can in fact propel her status up the ladder to "superior magician".Lannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018584509455303394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1814799811633243210.post-86979791487889232512009-03-07T06:41:00.000-08:002009-03-07T06:41:00.000-08:00Hi "The" and Spouse.

On the downside the little ones can speak the truth about things spinning out of control and unless one is privy to what goes on behind the green door they can never know the true meaning. I hope it was good.
