ANCIENT CHINESE BELIEF: When a child is born invisible red threads extend from the child's spirit and connect to all the significant people who will be part of the child's life. As the child grows, the threads shorten, drawing closer those people who are destined to be together.

Update

Just in case you thought we had fallen off the face of the earth, we are still here and safely transplanted in Idaho. We are all doing fine and are just busy unpacking and getting to know our new area. We finally got to start the church that Chuck had found for us when he came up here and we are all enjoying it. It was freezing when we first arrived but the past few days have been warm and beautiful. The kids are absolutely loving being on 5 acres and I can hardly get Jonah inside anymore. We are able to walk to the end of our street and out into the open. It is great exercise for all of us, including the dogs. Hogan gets to run free and is really building up his muscles. He is as happy to have the open space as Jonah is. As much as we miss our lives in Texas, we are really enjoying being free of the humidity and love being outdoors more. Below are pics from our trip to Idaho through Fathers Day.

Melanie, I'm so glad you all made it without any problems. The pics on your blog are so pretty!!! You all look so very happy - I know you are all glad to be living together and not apart like it was until you could join Chuck. We are praying that you all get settled in soon => Millicent

The Importance of Keeping an Internet Marketing Journal***Not everybody keeps a diary or a journal, but when it comes to internet marketing one of the best things you can do is note down all the things you have done, no matter how insignificant - making sure you put it down on paper, notebook or in a folder on the computer. http://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.phpYou can note down the mistakes you have made which will make sure you learn from them and dont make the same mistakes again. The same can be said for all the positive things you do, make a note of what you have done and then you can refer back to that at a later date and use the same idea for a different project.Keeping a day to day journal of even the emails that you get can be a useful action. You dont have to write down all the emails that you receive, that would be stupid, but noting the ones that help or hinder you, can save you a lot of time and effort later when you come to create your own emails.Some of the most successful business people in the world keep day to day journals and they will carry a small note book with them at all times, so they can jot things down, which they will later add to their journal.Another great thing about keeping a journal, is the fact that it can help you when you are writing an ebook or even just an article. What I mean is that you can refer back to information, that otherwise you may have forgotten, or you need to put something down in a way that you just cannot think of. Referring back to your journal may just give you that little bit of insight you need to start or finish what you are writing about.If you do not keep a journal, then you will definitely not see if you are making any progress or not. It has to be one of the best ways to keep an eye on your business, rather than just looking at various statistics. No matter how small or how big the progress, if you have different points noted down over a space of time, then you will notice the change.Keeping your journal or a note pad with you at all times should be an essential part of your life and business. After all we cannot remember everything all of the time.http://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.phpHow NOT to spend thousands of dollars getting it right with internet marketing, get it FREEhttp://www.ourtips.info/postlaunchprofits.php
