Welcome, girl, from the great state of TEXAS!!
My SIL was born & raised in Australia but guess what? He has been here in US for about 15 yrs & doesn't have in the least the accent. But he can do it when he wants. His bro & parents are living there now. He took my daughter here about 2 yrs ago for the 1st time, they're now in China with 5 wonderful GK & hopefully they can take the kids before they come back (pray it won't be too long, I've been around the kids all their lives, the 2 boys (14 & 12) were born in Tennessee, the 3 girls (10, 8, 6) here in Texas) to USA. I'm their only GP here in states, so I miss them so very much! My hubby died suddenly 9.5 yrs ago with the boys were 4 & 2, the oldest girl was 1. I've told people the hardest thing about my hubby going, was that he didn't get to enjoy these other GK. My son has adopted 2 of his 2nd cousins, so I have 2 other GD for 5 yrs, but I'm not as bonded as with the others. I get to Skype them quite often but its not the same as hugs & kisses.
Happy sewing. This is a wonderful site that I spend way tooo much time on...
