SGGVT04 thank you for pointing out the flag issue. I'm Canadian and had no idea how the American OR the Canadian flag were supposed to be hung vertically. So naturally I googled it and found several "debates" on this topic. Apparently alot of people would think this flag looks ok. In my opinion hanging it the correct way looks 'backward'. So anyway, thanks for pointing it out. Now if I ever hang a flag vertically I'll know how. :o)

*in my opinion*
Keeping pets is a very shelfish act and hardly ever in the best interest of the animal. :o(
There are better ways of teaching children life values/lessons.

I think the new colors and sets are awesome for girls (or even boys for that matter). I like how most pieces are 'lego' piece that you could use with any other lego kits.
I "personaly" don't like the new characters. I'm a mom of 2 boys so maybe I just don't get what girls like.

I think they should've kept with the regular minifigurines. Have you seen the cool 'girl' minifigs Lego has already? Like Skater Girl, Intergalactic Girl, Zookeeper (I love her!) etc....

Do we need all girl toys to be wearing mini skirts and tank tops???

I wonder why they don't make toothbrushes with removable heads. That way you just keep the handle (they don't get damaged at our house) and then you could just replace the head? They could sell the heads like they do razors. Seems like a waste to just throw the entire thing in the garbage.

You know we never got goody bags when we were kids and we still had a blast at parties! And we never bought gifts that were over 10$ So maybe we're becoming a little excessive? Just a thought. I'm not saying I don't do goody bags. I love goody bags :o) But I do feel a little guilty after the party and think maybe it's unnecesary? After all the kids have such a fun time playing games and eating cake and candy that they don't even look for it...until it becomes a habit that is. :o(

My friend had a "recycled gift" party once that I thought was neat, everyone had to bring a slightly used book or toy for her kid.

The best idea I have seen for keeping my kids' feather collections is using a wicker ball and sticking the feathers in the wicker ball. I saw this on a blog somewhere (can't remember where) and have used it for both my sons' feather collections. It stands up and it actually looks nice and tidy.

Good luck.
