[QUOTE]J- I think you me and duds should all get pregnant right now and have Olivias, lol.

Hm, no thanks. I have enough children at work and I sort of like being able to give them back ;) But I'll send my Olivia vibes your way!

Any- If I went with family names they would be like characters out of 300. Insane.

A friend of mine found out a few years back she had celiac and had to cut most of that out of her diet, shes since written 2 cook books on it. It seems like its a lot more common now a days but Ive already complained about that lol

That sounds totally badass to me. Yup, definitely naming my son Leonidas.

Blueyed228 · February 2012

From the family tree I have been working on:

Leonidas
Stravoula
Athanasia
Demetrios
Aristedes
Panos
Efthemia
Giannoula
Spero
Aphrodite
George
Vasiliki
Demetria

Yeah, if one of them is wheat, getting tested for Celiac is next on the list.

J&K10910 · February 2012

Your family has some pretty cool names, Blue.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: talk to me? : Ha, that's the way of thinking that my H is coming around to. He has enough hellions to deal with at work, and that's not counting the kids with special needs. For example, one kid decided to write his "What I did over the Christmas break" essay on the illegal activities he got up to.

This is a fantastic thing. At least he's being open about his naughtiness. Easier to stop them if you know they're doing it ;)

Thanks :)

Some of them changed their names to the American version, and im still trying to figure out what exactly their given name was. The census records are all different since they were handwritten.

But, I did find out that I am in fact from Sparta, on both my Grandmother and Grandfathers side. Sparta and Megalopolis (which is on the same island as Sparta, right next to it)

Luca is really pretty. I don't think I've heard that before.

Demetrios is pretty awesome.

Okay, I'm off to take a bubble bath and finish my book. Good night ladies!

It usually translates to James in English.

What types of programs do they have for at-risk youth over there?

Blue, I like to say Megalopolis.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: talk to me? : I'm not sure. I know that every school has a social worker there a few days each week, but apart from that, I'll have to ask H. In general, I'd say that socially, HK isn't bad, but perhaps a bit idealistic...or maybe unrealistic. I'm not sure.

Ah. That's too bad. I feel like there's a Western stereotype that kids behave better there, so I was just kind of wondering what kind of stuff they had for kids that were having some troubles.

J&K10910 · February 2012

I believe it.
