Being a dog owner, and a soon-to-be parent, I wonder if Abby the dog will be smiling as much as this dog when we return with a screaming child that will take our attention away from her. Abby doesn't do well with loud noise so we're not sure how she'll do with a crying baby in the house.


Not much in the Children's Bridge update today. They expect another group to get their referral in the next round of matching. The rumor on the Rumor Queen site this week is that they'll be matching until the end of September this month. Yes, that will be a whole months files matched in a month. It's been quite a while since they matched that much. But these are only rumors. Now the downside of this is that the month of September is supposedly a small month compared to October / November so even though the'll make it thru a month, it may not be a big month.

Cathy @ CB was in contact with us this week about arranging the next information session for them here in Moncton in March. She wants Jennifer and I to do some of the presentation they do.

Colors have symbolic meanings in China.
Red and gold are seen as “lucky” and are used in weddings, celebrations and on New Year’s Day.
White and black are mourning colors, used in funerals and sad occasions. Because of this, wedding dresses are traditionally red.
