My Farewell Greentea (by Uncle John)

It was a heart breaking day....
--------------------------------------------------------
Dear Stephanie, Yi-Ping, Alice and Chi-Chi:

Sorry to inform you: Greentea passed away this afternoon.

He has developed symptoms of illness in the past four days.  He ate less and less, moved less. He could not fly up, had to craw up.  Last night, he can still stay on purch to sleep.  Cheesecake had to stay very close to him to keep him warm.

This morning, we found Greentea on the floor, could not stand on its own feet.  Steven and I set up a ground feeder, so Greentea can stay in there. This earlier afternoon, he laid his head down, with little movement.  And just moment ago, he passed away.

According to wikipedia.org, life span of budgerigar are on average 5 - 8 years.  So, Greentea has spent most of his life with us.

Greentea has been my great company, and really a gentle birds.  Generous Greentea made Zoe and Abigail the luckiest two girls got to pet him last.  We thanks to his time with us.

The channel is either through gene, visual contact via commercial or through peer pressures. The symptoms of patients includes no stop desire for stuff animals, movies and wining.

As per study, the only effective vaccine can be found at the sources of virus. It will take 2 to 7 days to finish this kind of vaccine and only take it on site. In addition monetary damage, the vaccine has multiple side effects, including sore throat, headache, dizzy, fatigue, anxiety, and line phobia. In some extreme case, some people would have two extra years pop up during the medication. Due to personal differences, people would need to take the vaccine every year, every 10, 15 years or cure for live.

After cure, people either suffer from some memory lost or is under some sort of influence. Because, people only remember it was a magical experiences..

Happy Birthday, Big One..

Halloween Preparation, originally uploaded by szachko.

It was a beautiful autumn day.  The temperature was just right to stroll around the town.  I've worked with girls to set up a travel plan of the day.  The main theme of the day is to visit costumes shops and hopefully find THE costumes for this coming Halloween.

Ladies in the shops were so helpful.  I did not realize that you actually could try on those costumes.  Luckily, both girls found their favor dresses without me breaking the bank.  Out of blues, girls started trying out all the glasses on the rack.  Big one picked up this Harry Potter glasses and try it on.  Be honestly, she looked very cute.  She was right, she looks great in any style of glasses.

Big one is reaching preteen age.  I don't know if she will feel cool shopping with Mom next year.  I am just happy that I got the chance to shop with my girls in such a wonderful autumn day.  I hope they will have happy memory when they look back years after.

Zozo the Clown Fish

Zozo is the reason to start the whole Zachko Aquarium Fantasy.

When visiting a local aquarium shop in New Jersey, Zozo was so amazed the way clown fish swims that she invented the clown fish move. Of course, Mommy, Daddy tried very hard to keep ONE clown fish in the tank. Abby will exam the health of the fish and make sure the fish is fed twice a day.

Surely, Zozo is the trend setter...
