I was able to talk to Amber in New Zealand on the phone for about half an hour last night which was great - it was her birthday there already since they're a day ahead of us. I can't believe Amber is 11 already! She sounds good and is doing really well in school - I'm really proud of her. The other great news is that they've got a computer and are hopefully going to connect to the internet soon, so we'll be able to email each other! Snail mail isn't exactly reliable, I've had a few things sent from NZ that never made it here, so at least with email we'll actually get it. Anyway the picture I took here is what I got Amber for her birthday - the thinner bracelet is for me, the thicker one for Amber. The engraving is a celtic knot which symbolizes success and protection. I hope she likes it. Happy birthday Amber *kiss*
