I usually just say that I wish humans had the ability to hibernate. Mars sounds much more adventurous than curling up for a long sleep. <br /><br />I am enchanted by this poem, but what strikes me more here is all of your replies to the comments people have left. Your replies are not only thoughtful, but they demonstrate how much you care, how well you know all of these fellow bloggers. Your ability to connect is inspiring. I am glad you are moving onward & onward and that Ingrid's birthday party is going to be a treat for you!Christy Rush-Levinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581876400990779210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-13613553223125442242012-04-15T07:19:46.440-06:002012-04-15T07:19:46.440-06:00And there are so many, aren't there, Katherine...And there are so many, aren't there, Katherine. like all your final work for your degree-almost there!!
