To all of Our One Heart’s American readers, HAPPY 4TH OF JULY to all of YOU!
What did you do to celebrate this special long weekend? I’ve got relatives living in the US and most of them attended or hosted BBQ parties!

BlissTree now has a Community Board/Forum! Yay! Let us know what you think! We have a number of forum topics to choose from and of course, the one that I’d be monitoring close is the topic under weddings!

The family is still on high with Barack Obama’s inauguration. I loved loved Obama’s inauguration speech. Such an eloquent speaker…Sigh, he’s hot!
