You tease!!! Almost WHAT?!
come on, fill us in....
Hey Cristin!! I don't know why you just gave everyone a description of "almost", but I will soon be leaving the US to go back home. I have tried to call you, but no luck. I was hoping to chat with you before I leave b/c it won't be so easy to phone you once I'm there....
lots of love to you and call me or email me soon.
