I hope you had an amazing Easter. We went to church and then had a fun day filled with activities for the kids. As, I step back and reflected on the past year/ years I'm blown away by how truly happy I am with my life. That's not to say that everything is perfect and there are no challenges, but I'm totally satisfied. </div>

I have to be honest I never really saw my self having kids. It was such a foreign idea to me. I grew up with a very very small family and never had any direct contact to kids. I guess the kinda scared me. When I was told that I couldn't have any secretly I was kinda happy about it. But now, boy i'm so happy they were wrong. I want to have the most kids!! I love being a mommy so much. It's seriously the best thing ever. I'm so in love with them. Jovi is my comedian and Nixon is my cuddle bug. Every day I'm thankful for the time God has given me with them. <br />
<br />
Today we spent a little time taking photos of Jovi doing what she does best, making me laugh the hardest. I hope her photos make you smile.<br />

And if I thought it was hard blogging with just one baby it's nearly impossible finding the time with two. I'm not sure when and how often I'll be updating on here but i'm hoping i'll get the hang of thing and start posting more frequently again.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
that being said let me tell you about Nixon. He is my little lover boy. He is perfect, Huge, cuddly, and absolutely adorable. I couldn't ask for a more amazing baby. He cuddles me all night long and i wake up to his adorable little man child smiles. He stole my heart right away with is gentil disposition.<br />
<br />
He was born May 26th, weighing 9 1/2 pounds. He is a big boy for sure. I'm not sure how he fit in my tiny body. I had him just like I did with Jovi, at home in a birthing tub. I did every thing completely natural and wouldn't have it any other way. My labor was completely different then with Jovi. In fact it was pretty strange and surreal the whole time. I had no idea I was in labor and didn't really feel any pain right up until the very end. He was so big that he got stuck pretty badly and it was super scary for a few mins. His shoulders were just way to big for me. Thankfully, my mid wife was able to get him out safely and everything was ok.<br />
<br />
the pas few months i've just been settling into my new role, mommy of two!! it's been crazy around here but it's really not as hard as I anticipated. Jovi adores her little brother. all she wants to do is hold him and kiss him. I just need to remind her to be gental.<br />

I wasn't even planning on having a shower this time around, but my friends wouldn't have that so they threw me the most spectacular shower! Seriously they need to do some serious thought on starting an event planning business. It was so beautiful down to the smallest detail. It's like they crawled inside my brain and channeled me the whole way threw. It's days like these that you truly feel cherished and loved by the people closest to you. I know it took them a lot of work and time and I'm so grateful that they felt I was worth all the pampering.<br />
<br />
thanks so much guys!!<br />

It seems like I've finally had the time to get back into doing Shoots more regularly. It's been awesome too. I love photography and editing. I thought, naively that last year when I took off for maternity leave I would have all this time to work on my Photography and Editing skills and starting becoming the professional photographer that I've been dreaming of. Well, that was a be joke....having a new born well no one told me, but they happen to be a ton of work. haha I dont know what I was thinking. I even did a few shoots wearing Jovi in a baby carrier it was a complete mess. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, now we gotten the swing of things and I'm finally finding time to slowly build up my portfolio just in time for baby number two!! hah </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here's a look at my lastest shoot with Alex and Sarah. It was really fun hearing their ideas and making them come alive. I feel like the pictures really capture who they are as a couple.I always get nervous shooting more the one person at a time. It's hard enough trying to direct one person then add to that and it's a lot of work. It's so much easier when the two people have the love and chemistry that Alex and Sarah naturally have together. </div>

Today was my last official day of work, I still have a few friends to tattoo but today feels like my last day for a while. I'm still taking appointment and plan on being back sometime in August. It's bitter sweet. I like having the break but I know i'm going to miss the shop so much. It's such a good thing I only live a few blocks away.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I thought I'd fill you in on some of my resent projects. please excuse the poor quality most the time I only have my Iphone on me and it's not the best for tattoo photos.<br />

It was amazing to get to tattoo with her again. I seriously miss the presence of another female artist in the shop. I dont know how we went from a female dominated shop to only one girl!!<br />
<br />
Anyways, while she was here we got a chance to have fun out of the shop with a little photo shoot. Mia is a natural so it wasn't very hard to get some great shots. I hope you like them<br />

Its harder and easier this time around. Harder because i'm trying to run after a 15 month old all day long and easier because 'm not counting every single day not knowing what to expect. I am ready to have this little guy though. I cant wait to meet him and hug and kiss him. With Jovi I had no idea what I was in for. Part of me didn't even understand that the end result was me having this precious little life to care for. I mean I knew i was having a baby and all that jazz but I couldn't fully comprehend what that meant until they handed her to me and I had a panic moment, "this was our child, my daughter and she is fully my responsibility!!!" this time I feel more prepared and I understand way better. That leaves way way more room for excitement. I cant believe a year has come and gone already. <br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Last week another one of my friends moved away from Hawaii. I know i've said it before but it kills me to watch my friends go. This time was especially hard. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">When i moved to Hawaii 5 yrs ago. I didn't know a soul. It was a huge scary move and I never thought I would make it out here without my friends. I've always been blessed with incredible friends and they mean the world to me. I come from a super small family so my friends are totally family to me. Leaving them behind was super hard for me. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijvFfSFyItvAxWWWj2nJAvY121tUbmvZF0JidAGR2czgGWFomPmUAMDLbiYtX1XMW_z7MMCqMwsncXXboj9SN7Wxb0NwLA6w9OAZffVgLBTFRf2gKmcNajUxl8FaBJDcRhjwJnGIH4-zc/s1600/skottweb4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijvFfSFyItvAxWWWj2nJAvY121tUbmvZF0JidAGR2czgGWFomPmUAMDLbiYtX1XMW_z7MMCqMwsncXXboj9SN7Wxb0NwLA6w9OAZffVgLBTFRf2gKmcNajUxl8FaBJDcRhjwJnGIH4-zc/s640/skottweb4.jpg" width="275" /></a></div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">A few months after I moved out here my best friend James followed suite. It was so good to have a familiar face around. Hawaii is more then perfect but it's nothing if you have no one to experience it with. It was just me and James for awhile until we started to make a small group of friends. That small but incredible group will always hold a special place in my heart. They helped define hawaii for me, taking this perfect place and making it home for me. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My second year another close friend from NJ, Skott, was added to our group. He has been here ever since then and last week I had to say good bye. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjUkegbkLYI83R5XpqCMouJKy9ptU7eYqNhdvxHQR8bUMm-_m-EHI6SunRF72rlZkDWST3FeZbyPw0j3DJA5VoIWlYx6ecV-62ajcSniqvLq3U3sNpOedkdGRZQrl17NpniCPF6wXid4/s1600/skottweb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjUkegbkLYI83R5XpqCMouJKy9ptU7eYqNhdvxHQR8bUMm-_m-EHI6SunRF72rlZkDWST3FeZbyPw0j3DJA5VoIWlYx6ecV-62ajcSniqvLq3U3sNpOedkdGRZQrl17NpniCPF6wXid4/s640/skottweb.jpg" width="468" /></a></div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I've known Skott pretty much my whole life. We met as two punk kids hanging out at the mall and going to shows in NJ. Anyone who knows Skott knows it's either a love or hate relationship. There is no one like him. He is one of the loudest most obnoxious people I have ever met. It's something I love dearly about him. Anyone who has ever been in the same vicinity as him could tell you that he demands attention and will get it forcibly if he has to. He doesn't ever care what anyone thinks about him. He speaks his mind and isn't concerned with who it's going to offend. I adore his honestly and boldness. when most people are spending time on their image Skott is just busy being him self. that's what makes him something to be sought after. He is famous for acting first and thinking later. But these are all things anyone would know about him by spending 5 mins with him. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here are some things I have learned about him by spending close to 15 yrs with him. He never gives up on you once your his friend. He is loyal and caring. He doesn't know it but he is very very smart. I think he could be good at anything he tries to do because he puts all of his heart into it. He is one of the hardest workers I have ever known. He is always down to have fun and having him around is the life of the party. He is my best friend and I've always had him and James close by me. They are my brothers. I Have no idea who I would be without them or where I would be with out them. they have both help me get through harder times then I hope anyone ever has to deal with. With out them I would be lost. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Beauty is so hard to define. Everyone has their own vision of beauty. Most define being beautiful as outward qualities – slim, muscular, long hair, dark hair, light hair, blue eyes, green eyes ect. I really have found that true beauty lies within a person. While yes, God did create some very very physically beautiful people – He is an amazing artist, a beautiful heart wins me over every time. A heart that is soft and moldable, passionate and tender is a beautiful thing.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"><br />

Have you ever struggled with comparing yourself to other women? Can you share some of your secrets for overcoming that battle?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">I have definitely struggled with this. I think almost every girl has. There is something inside of us that longs to be beautiful, desirable, and wanted. There are also so many different opinions on what beauty is, that if we allow it, it sort of throws us around and drives us a little crazy. If I tried to be what every person thought was beautiful, I would be a big huge contradiction. Instead I have to focus on who I want to be. I surely don’t want to be immodest and dress inappropriate to draw attention to what some think is beautiful. I know who I am, and I know that I am beautiful. There are so many beautiful women in this world, and it’s so neat just how beautifully different we all are! I have so many beautiful women in my life, and I’m so thankful for them. Each one has taught me something different about being a woman of God, I love that.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi2d4iU8-taS-svedOjZ8i20k7tot3fA2KUpnbQ2cdagvMiABzbsZH-J8iaCXW_SLQBIxlnmG0tXdkixWZ0ZVWXD6q36T1u15Xd3ApbC8yxZR6Nt7cZT5C1FSPNCNQP3UILjRfwKzqcc8/s1600/1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi2d4iU8-taS-svedOjZ8i20k7tot3fA2KUpnbQ2cdagvMiABzbsZH-J8iaCXW_SLQBIxlnmG0tXdkixWZ0ZVWXD6q36T1u15Xd3ApbC8yxZR6Nt7cZT5C1FSPNCNQP3UILjRfwKzqcc8/s400/1.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"><br />

I have found that I can find my identity in nothing but God alone. Nothing good comes from seeking approval from others.

Be a good friend to yourself. You would never be friends with someone that consistently put you down and called you names, so don’t do that to yourself! Pick out a few things that you really like about yourself and focus on those things. At one point, I made a list of things I liked about myself. Putting it down on writing made me focus on those things and was pretty therapeutic also. I’d read it every morning and add a new item every day. For some reason it’s so much easier to pick our selves apart than to pick things we appreciate. I found it easier when I started thanking God for making me just how I am, just how He wants me, to actually appreciate all the little things about myself.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIBhLWcVJFg8x9qMz-In70Dp3usDBUXWjg2_10_7RXLMq6rJewMs04dZJG-aPwX6FrQEx7enPptzRKj2E0oddN3TYEzKNSqWl6pW4yGNYlr2UWAlV1OfF5yj69jZX2sOpBof1ncHyPFpQ/s1600/hair.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIBhLWcVJFg8x9qMz-In70Dp3usDBUXWjg2_10_7RXLMq6rJewMs04dZJG-aPwX6FrQEx7enPptzRKj2E0oddN3TYEzKNSqWl6pW4yGNYlr2UWAlV1OfF5yj69jZX2sOpBof1ncHyPFpQ/s400/hair.jpg" width="282" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have, gone to a birthday party, a going away party, Gotten Jovi's first shots, A youth group lock in, Planned a huge surprise birthday party for jesse, Gone to a bachelorette party, planned a bridal shower, mean while working and talking care of Jovi.

I wanted so badly to have a friend going through the same things I was as a soon to be mommy.

I spent so many years chasing "beauty", and trying to fit into that stereotype. Now, I have found my beauty in becoming a mama. I am finding my beauty in being stretched to the limit… learning to love and raise a little one without selfish ambition… giving and loving, even when I don't have much to give. I have found my beauty being heavily dependent upon the Lord's grace. </span></div><div class="p1" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I feel like every one has had to come to grips with the ugly competition and comparisons with other women. I struggled with, and still do struggle with this from time to time. But the truth is, there is only one "me." Regardless if I am "beautiful" by the worlds standard, I LOVE my life and I LOVE the role I have been given in this life. No one else can be me. I have been perfectly handcrafted by the Lord... I learning to love being "me." </span></div><div class="p2" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

For me, I feel most alive and beautiful when I spend time face down before my Maker… when I have a heart to heart with my husband… when I am playing with my little one… when I am offering encouragement to a friend… when I am writing, and telling my own story.</span></div><div class="p2" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I simply cannot be without Him. The Lord has blessed me with a wonderful husband, who daily reaffirms his love and attraction to my inward and outward beauty. Also, becoming a mama has boosted my confidence in myself as well. It used to be I would be caught dead leaving the house with no make up on. Now, I am learning to love the "natural look" simply because I have no time to get dolled up with a (almost) 6 month old! : )</span></div><div class="p2" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I have had so many people tell me so many lies concerning beauty. They were bitter, angry hearts that had been mistreated by the world's standard of beauty. Your beauty is incredible, and just waiting to be unleashed. The world needs to see and experience your beauty… </span></div><div class="p1" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Nerdy fact number 5: I love maps!! sit me down next to a atlas, or a globe and i'm like a kid in a candy shop. I dont know what it is about them I could just stare forever. I love knowing exactly where I am. I think it stems from me having a visual memory. I want to and must see it to know where I am and it's relation to everything else. But I also enjoy looking at map just to know where places are. I like discovering new tiny islands and cities. <img height="312" id="il_fi" src="http://www.swiftmaps.com/catalog/HAWAII.jpg" style="padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;" width="440" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My dear blogger friend Mandy of <a href="http://www.shebreathesdeeply.com/2011/08/about-as-real-as-it-gets.html?showComment=1313738515643#c289743286612098012">she breaths deeply</a> just did a post about being burnt out. Ohh, man this post really touched my heart. Her daughter lilly is a few months younger then Jovi and I totally remember feeling the way she does now. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Jovi is a super spirited baby. She has always been very very attentive, persistence, focused, Intense, super attached, very needy and doesn't like to be put down. I never had experience with other babies so she seemed totally normal to me just constant draining work. She would cry when ever she wasn't being held. people would always remark on how good she was, and I would remark back that it was because she is in my arms. She refused to sleep anywhere but on me or Jesse. I never got a break If I had to pee it meant taking her with me or hearing her cry the whole time I was gone. Even at night I wouldnt get a break because she had to snuggle up right next to me using my arm as a pillow. If i would let her she could cry for hours and not give in to sleep. It wasn't tell people started criticizing me and my husband's attachment parenting style that I started wondering maybe Jovi's not like other babies. I was so sick of hearing people say "stop holding her so much you're spoiling her, or just let her cry she'll fall asleep eventually." I started to feel like a failure as a mom. why was she so needy? Why were my friends babies able to occupy them selfs. I would have given anything for Jovi to be able to self sooth for even ten mins. Was it something I was doing or not doing? Did I need to let her cry more?<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"> I did a little research and found out that babies, like adults have many different personalities. We were lucky enough to be blessed with a spirited, or High needs baby. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">here are a few examples of what I read about spirited babies. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 19px;"></span></span></b></span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><div style="color: #cc0c0c; font: 14.0px Arial; line-height: 19.0px; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">"The cry of a high need baby is not a mere request, it's an urgent demand. These babies put more energy into everything they do. They cry loudly, feed voraciously, laugh with gusto, and protest more forcefully if their needs are not met to their satisfaction. Because they feel so deeply, they react more powerfully if their feelings are disturbed." - Dr Sears </div><div style="font: 16.0px Times; line-height: 19.0px; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 19.0px; text-align: center;"><br />

These babies convey a sense of urgency in their signals; they do not like waiting, and they do not readily accept alternatives. Woe to the parent who offers baby the rattle when he is expecting a breast. He will let you know quickly and loudly that you've misread his cues. The concept of "delayed gratification" is totally foreign to infants, it must be sensitively and gradually taught when the child is developmentally ready to learn it.- Dr. Sears </div><div style="font: 16.0px Times; line-height: 19.0px; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 19.0px; text-align: center;"><br />

They are very vocal and even seem aggressive at times. They scream for Mum or Dad when they wake in the morning.- Tracy Hogg</div><div style="color: #cc0c0c; font: 14.0px Arial; line-height: 18.0px; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;"><br />

I wasn't failing as a mother. Knowing that it was all part of her personality gave me freedom. I no longer need to try and change her. I didn't need to feel like it was wrong or spoiling her to hold her all day and sleep with her at night. She wasn't being manipulative or controlling she just needed love and physical touch. </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

She demanded all of my attention. Once i started changing my outlook on it from feeling like i couldn't do anything but hold her, to, I'm am doing the most important thing right now pouring love into my baby, things got so much better. </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

She is still a High needs baby, but she is sleeping in her own crib and now that she is crawling she doesn't demand as much time in my arms. I cherish every moment that she does knowing that she is growing up so fast and soon the day will come where she cries when I'm holding her. </span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv12gUJ61YwKRzsCkDbh1CMvH_u_j44o1E2P_z50uUeiDfQA6iFwp-04PeD8isxod2v0gbxOAU3z8FHo1LjkuRYhHqI_A3-awu-G5MsOO1ZWomzCSG4oU566g0BsCoB3d44HepIPB0768/s1600/IMG_4363.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv12gUJ61YwKRzsCkDbh1CMvH_u_j44o1E2P_z50uUeiDfQA6iFwp-04PeD8isxod2v0gbxOAU3z8FHo1LjkuRYhHqI_A3-awu-G5MsOO1ZWomzCSG4oU566g0BsCoB3d44HepIPB0768/s320/IMG_4363.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><br />

True it's hard sometimes to know if you are doing things the right way, but trust in your self. You know your baby better then anyone else does. Let your house fall apart, order pizza and skip that shower if you have to just know that this first year will be over in the blink of an eye. </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbzydTeGCzWHT-FXSQzgAyETBAwmk75UPAHiovB0eqlP_yYLTDXCER4y0poDslw4eyv_66d0iwR73XiKOMJdleZxT_8nu5fYiOEv2a9juxV1NjgyzLQSnN9CDyWZZoaiCwxzzVbByWuzo/s1600/IMG_1561.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbzydTeGCzWHT-FXSQzgAyETBAwmk75UPAHiovB0eqlP_yYLTDXCER4y0poDslw4eyv_66d0iwR73XiKOMJdleZxT_8nu5fYiOEv2a9juxV1NjgyzLQSnN9CDyWZZoaiCwxzzVbByWuzo/s320/IMG_1561.jpg" width="238" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
