Best news ever. :D :D :D
Posted by: Melanie | 01 December 2008 at 05:47 PM
I SO knew that! Didn't I tell you that?? Yay Tertia!
Although - with your genes, I'm surprised it was just "normal male" - surely it should have been "Extraordinary, super intelligent, exceptionally good looking"
I guess it was the male part that killed the above adjectives! Ha - must take after Marko!
Posted by: Kirsty | 01 December 2008 at 05:54 PM
