			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow! O.O I haven&#8217;t been here in such a long time!!! Anyway, I suggest you read my last entry on <a href="http://honey-babe.net" target="_blank">http://honey-babe.net</a> because there I explain why I won&#8217;t be around for the goodness of 4 days. ^^</p>
<p><u>To Honie</u>: I&#8217;m going to link you up after I finish this entry, darling <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m still looking forward to buy a <a href="http://www.posylane.com/oh-mint-nap-mats-rolls.htm" rel="nofollow">nap mat</a>, a <a href="http://www.posylane.com/oh-mint-laundry-bags.htm" rel="nofollow">laundry bag</a> and a <a href="http://www.posylane.com/oh-mint-bath-towel-wraps.htm" rel="nofollow">towel wrap</a> for my little <strong>Orion</strong> and <strong>Erik</strong>. <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I need to find a friend in the US who&#8217;s available to buy them for me and ship them to me though, because living in Italy means I can&#8217;t buy directly from Posylane. ^^&#8221; *<em>sigh</em>*</p>
<p>As for other things, it&#8217;s been <strong>Taryn</strong>&#8216;s birthday on May 17th, <strong>Rose</strong>&#8216;s birthday on May 13th, <strong>Erik</strong>&#8216;s birthday on June 7th, <strong>Ronald</strong>&#8216;s birthday on June 30th, and <strong>Landin</strong>&#8216;s birthday on July 18th! <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  And well&#8230; of course mine was on June 17th. ^^ Hehe. But yes, there&#8217;s been so many birthdays in my adoptive family of late. <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Happy belated birthdays, my darling kids! Mama loves you always! &hearts;</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been a few months since I first joined <strong>La Leche League International</strong>. As a magazine subscriber only though, at least for this year. Every two months, I get my &#8220;<strong>New Beginnings</strong>&#8221; magazine mailed to my address, and my time reading it can only be defined with one word: wonderful.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a mom in the heart, and I hope many more moms will join this <em>God-gifted</em> association for breastfeeding support, made by moms and everyone who cares, doctors included. Even just for a supporting word, being part of a community is nothing but great, and human :&#8217;)</p>
<p>My warmest hugs and thankful prayers to the mommies who founded La Leche League back on 1958. Thanks for bringing the world back to nature ^_^</p>

<p>This is for my sweet son <strong>Landin</strong>. The poem on the scrapbook is not mine, but it was written by Rose Falcone on <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mother-and-son-4/" target="_blank">http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mother-and-son-4/</a><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My kids feel better, and savings for the trip to Germany to see <strong>Landin</strong> are doing good too <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Overall, it&#8217;s being a <em>nice</em> time for all of us ^^ Also, my son <strong>Jazzy</strong> finally found the <em>love of his life</em>!!! <u>Congrats sweetie!!!</u> You make mom proud ;3<br />
I know I can&#8217;t see my kids every day because of our different timezones and my increased need for sleep, but it&#8217;s alright. Long as I know they&#8217;re happy, I&#8217;m happy too, even though I can&#8217;t hear from them that often <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
By the way, I got to show you the <strong>card</strong> that my son <u>Landin</u> sent to my email on my birthday (June 17th) because it&#8217;s adorable and I just cried when I read it again last night:</p>
<p><center><br />
<small>Click on the picture to see a larger version and <i>read</i> the message</small><br />
<a href="http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p137/childrenofimagination/RL/Landin/from_landin_birthdaygift_23years.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p137/childrenofimagination/RL/Landin/th_from_landin_birthdaygift_23years.jpg"></a><br />
<small>He&#8217;s adorable, isn&#8217;t he? ^.^</small><br />
</center></p>
<p>Yesterday <u>Jazzy</u> and <strong>Riku</strong> received my <strong>gift package</strong>. Awww *_* It was so sweet when Jazzy called me on MSN all happy that he got my little present <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  It was nothing big really, just a <a href="http://sweet-loves.net/?p=95" target="_blank">bonding pendant</a> and a €50 banknote for him, and a plushie for Riku, but hearing him so happy and excited about it made me feel such a deep joy! I love you baby! *<em>mwah mwah</em>*</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><center>My babies on Multiply &hearts;<br />
<a href="http://lusbabies.multiply.com" target="_blank">http://lusbabies.multiply.com</a><br />
Add me!</center></p></blockquote>
<p>My kids are faring well enough, except for a few things. <strong>Riku</strong> is badly ill and I&#8217;m kind of worried about his healt now <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  I know it&#8217;s a time of sicknesses and influenzas but you know how Moms are&#8230; when it touches your baby you can hardly stand it! -.- Sickness has caught me too, my tummy to be precise, so it&#8217;s two of us to be sick now. *sighs* <strong>Landin</strong> is gradually feeling better but he&#8217;s getting easily tired from work and I hope he can settle soon again, poor son of mine. I hope nothing more happens that makes him upset and sick (yeah, he&#8217;s very sensitive, which worries me not little). <em>I&#8217;ll be going to visit him in Germany soon, in a month or two</em> ^^ I just can&#8217;t wait! I&#8217;ll hold my baby for real for the first time. *_* It will be so sweet!</p>
<p>My daughter <strong>Rose</strong> has recently recovered from a cold and I&#8217;m glad she&#8217;s back in shape ^^ I know I will see her next year on Christmas and I&#8217;m counting down the weeks really! If only the ticket to the US wasn&#8217;t so expensive I would have gone this year x_x Gosh! It really sucks! But I&#8217;ll try to save even the smallest cent to be able to go and see my sweet baby.</p>
<p>Here she is:<br />
<center><img src="http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p137/childrenofimagination/RL/Rose/rosie.jpg"><br />
She&#8217;s so pretty, isn&#8217;t she? x3</center></p>
<p>As for <strong>Jazzy</strong>, he&#8217;s okay now, but he&#8217;s been depressed and so badly stressed that I feared he could get sick <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  I&#8217;m glad to hear he&#8217;s relaxing now from personal issues, and settling with college schedule. Then, I haven&#8217;t been catching <strong>Kat</strong>, <strong>Kathryn</strong> and <strong>Ronald</strong> online of late, but I hope they&#8217;re doing fine. I always worry when I don&#8217;t hear from my kids for a while but hey, I know how harsh life can get. With Kat is mostly a timezones and school troubles, while Kathryn has been grounded from the net and Ronald works many hours a day, and there&#8217;s still the timezones problem. I hope to catch <strong>Richani</strong> tomorrow maybe, I miss that sweetie ^^ And <strong>Taryn</strong> too, since I can only see her in the morning. I hope she&#8217;ll be okay, she&#8217;s been having kind of difficult days of late too.</p>
<p>I talk about my babies so much, don&#8217;t I? Well, I wouldn&#8217;t be a Mom if I didn&#8217;t :*</p>

<p>Two months ago I was searching Ebay for &#8220;<em>motherhood</em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>breastfeeding</em>&#8221; related items, and I came across these beautiful wood ornaments made by the Ebay seller <a href="http://myworld.ebay.it/bluemoonlaser/" target="_blank">bluemoonlaser</a>, an exquisite and creative person really. I totally fell in love with these pendants, such a warm and kind reminder of the symbol of the relationship that bonds a mother and a child through breastfeeding. &#8220;<em>Mother&#8217;s Milk &#8211; Nurturing the Soul of &#8211; (name)</em>&#8221; is what is written on each of these pendants, where I requested the names of three of my children to be placed on: <strong>Jazzy</strong>, <strong>Landin</strong> and <strong>Rose</strong>.</p>
<p>Of course, I never breastfed these &#8216;adopted&#8217; children of mine, but it&#8217;s the symbol that counts <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  These pendants are the <em>symbol of the bond that links us to each other, that connects our hearts recognizing ourself as a family</em>. I thank God everyday for this special gift of love, and I thank this great Ebay seller for creating such a beautiful reminder of this love. &hearts;</p>
<p><center><img src="http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p137/childrenofimagination/RL/7fc8_1.jpg"><br />
This is the one I bought for myself. I wrote all of my 9 kids&#8217; names on its rear ^^</center></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stolen from my sweet friend <a href="http://yennygirl.com" target="_blank">Yen</a></p>
<p>1. <strong>Do you worry about your next birthday?</strong><br />
Nah ^^ I don&#8217;t think 24 is that bad of an age *lol*</p>
<p>2. <strong>Have you ever lied about your age in the recent past? If yes why?</strong><br />
Nope. But I&#8217;m often told to look like a 17 years old student XD</p>
<p>3. <strong>Have you ever lied about your age when you were young? If yes why?</strong><br />
I can&#8217;t really remember&#8230;</p>
<p>4. <strong>How much older have you been a person that you were romantically involved?</strong><br />
I was 21.6 years old. To be precise.</p>
<p>5. <strong>How much younger have you been a person that you were romantically involved?</strong><br />
I was 2.9 years <em>older</em> than my ex ^^</p>
<p>6. <strong>Have you ever been consider a sibling, rather than parent of your child?</strong><br />
I haven&#8217;t my own kids (yet ?), but I love some of my friends as my children (and I&#8217;m returned &hearts;) and some of them are older than me, so yeah, we&#8217;ve been considered siblings sometimes :3</p>
<p>7. <strong>If you have had children, did you factor in age when deciding to have a sibling?</strong><br />
Well I would at least wait 2 years between the births.</p>
<p>8. <strong>If you have not had children, are you happy with your choice and/or fate?</strong><br />
I love and care about my &#8216;adopted&#8217; children with all my heart and being, and I don&#8217;t regret a thing about it &hearts;</p>
<p>9. <strong>Do your siblings have kids? Are you close to them? Their ages?</strong><br />
No they haven&#8217;t. They&#8217;re so young ^^ My brother and sister have to turn 17 yet, on October. And yes, we are very close, even though&#8230; well, you <em>know</em> how it is between siblings ;]</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My son has been <em>discharged</em> from the hospital and is now feeling better, even though he still has problems with his stomach and is taking medicines for it. He&#8217;s been under heavy stress, so I&#8217;ve been there for him, we watched funny movies on YouTube together, talking about relaxing stuff&#8230; and I cuddled him a little in chat. I asked him to help me with my translating job too (revising and correcting). I&#8217;m always so <u>happy</u> to see my baby happy :3 I hope anything bad is gonna happen again. I pray God for it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I know, I told some of you that I&#8217;d have blogged yesterday&#8230; but you know, things happen and yesterday I got so sick (another influenza, yes ;_; ) that I had to go to bed a bit earlier. I <u>hate</u> this damn influenza. This is like the <i>second</i> time I get it in two months of time x( Blech! I think I got it again because I&#8217;ve been taking care of my dad who has it&#8230; so now we&#8217;re <u>two</u> to be sick at home. LOL.</p>
<p>Yesterday had to be a <b>special day</b> for me&#8230; well, it actually WAS, even though my Honey wasn&#8217;t online on MSN and I was terribly sick. February 6th of 2008 was the day of our <b>2nd anniversary</b> ^^ Yeah, two years have passed since Mark and I got together. Funny, isn&#8217;t it? Two years already <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Looks like yesterday when we started calling each other &#8216;girlfriend&#8217; and &#8216;boyfriend&#8217;&#8230; on MSN! Eheheh. <i>Robots</i> and <i>MSN</i> have been our <u>Cupids</u>. We haven&#8217;t sent each other a card and a present yet, but we agreed on sending each other stuff (even from the anniversary) on <b>St. Valentine</b> instead, as after all it&#8217;s very close and is an opportunity to send/receive <u>more</u> presents <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  Ahah. <b>I love you, Mark!</b> And I hope next year we&#8217;ll be able to spend our 3rd anniversary day <u>TOGETHER</u> (<i>physically</i> I mean) ^^</p>
<p>Anyways&#8230; <strong>THANKS</strong> to all the sweet mommies who link exchanged with me &#8217;till now! ^0^ LOVE YOU ALL! And always know that I <strong>AM</strong> a mommy too&#8230; not for real yet, but I got a motherly <b>soul</b> and you can find full understanding and love in me <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  I don&#8217;t use nicknames like <em>mommysoul</em> or <em>milkysoul</em> for nothing, eheh ^^</p>
<p>For all of you (and for myself as well) I&#8217;m planning to install a forum (XMB or phpBB, not sure yet) on my private domain <a href="http://oh-mama.org" target="_blank">oh-mama.org</a>, open to al the mommies (real, to-be, adoptive and <i>potential</i> like me!). I&#8217;ll also open <strong>free hosting on oh-mama.org</strong> for all of you moms who want a <strong>baby blog</strong> for your little sweethearts ^0^ &hearts; <u>What do you think? (Please tell me in a comment)</u></p>
<p>P.S. in my <strong>imagination</strong> I got <em>32 kids</em>, you know? <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  and I got 3 little <u>real</u> robots which I consider my sons at 100% &hearts;</p>
<p>P.S.2 <strong>to all the moms:</strong> join me on the <a href="http://www.breastfeeding.com/social/index.php?do=/public/signup/refid_4183/" target="_blank">Breastfeeding.com</a> network! <img src='http://sweet-loves.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
