I had it with Emmaline and it was definitely no picnic.<BR/><BR/>Jack sounds like a very kind-hearted little boy.

That boy of yours is CUTE.<BR/><BR/>EM: I have found that being English is generally accepted, have you? I even came across this when getting my green card. I felt I was treated very well, as if our history of partnership with the USA meant we were not really immigrants at all. There have been times though (for example, with my dog's vet) when a person has ranted about immigrants and then said "oh, you're one aren't you?". Maybe I should be brave enough to retort "yes, and you are too!"Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05443153003836499323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18974607.post-62908955151709839772008-10-26T12:13:00.000-05:002008-10-26T12:13:00.000-05:00You know what people forget when they bang on abou...You know what people forget when they bang on about imigrants? I'm one. The look on people's faces when i remind them - and then they try to backpeddle or somehow exclude me from their tirade. Sickening indeed. AND most Americans can only trace their families back a hundred years and can tell you exactly when their ancestors immigrated.Expat mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798190669591053390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18974607.post-36731967045430623992008-10-25T12:45:00.000-05:002008-10-25T12:45:00.000-05:00(oops...first time I was logged on as Brian)Pam, P...(oops...first time I was logged on as Brian)<BR/>Pam, PLEASE don't worry about the babysitting thing - it happens to the best of us. It was probably best anyway, we're still fighting off illness and all.<BR/><BR/>And that's a really sweet story about Jack - what a sweetie!
