I didn't know the best way to write you back... so I'm doing it here.

I hope that you had a great birthday celebration without your hubby! That must be hard. I'm going crazy right now, and I still get to see mine every night!!

Thank you for the compliment! Of course I think she's beautiful, but then I'm her mommy, haha! You're kids are handsome/beautiful too! How old is your daughter now?

For the mystery shopping thing, I just do it as something to do. It doesn't really make a lot of money, but allows us to go out to eat etc. For example, if I do a CiCi's pizza buffet shop, I get reimbursed for my meal and paid to do it, which we use to buy Phil's meal, so we break even, but get to have a good time out, which we wouldn't otherwise do. It makes me feel like we have somewhat of a social life!! If you are interested, check out jobslinger.com and mysteryshopforum.com. They can point you in the direction of some reputable companies. NEVER pay a company... and if they want to send you money upfront, its a scam. What you normally have to do is pay for something (like a meal at Sonic) and fill out a questionaire thingie (its pretty detailed), then they pay you (depending on the company, a week or two or a couple months). So far, I've been paid for everything. They will reimburse you and then pay you a commission on top of it (usually... for some places like sit down dinners, they just pay for your food, but $50 in food is worth it to me). Also, the grocery store shops are nice because they'll pay you to do it, and then give you like $10 in free groceries!!

Thank you for all the information Anna!

Amy- Most of the pictures I have of Mark and the kids are of them on the floor playing "daddy is a jungle gym" They are very rough and tumble when he is home.
