1. Don't give up!

Look for the box that says "direct link" under the photo you want to post. Copy that link and paste it here. Good luck! :hi:

10. Hi MG.........

I have given up!! My windows does not have a clipboard installed on it's WINDOWS. It's a used business Dell 2000. My "Windows for Dummies 98" book is of no help at all. I don't know anywhere to go from here. I can't figure out "cut and paste" either. My only shot at getting these pics on this forum, is if there is anyone out there who will trust me enough to PM me their e mail address, then I can send them to them (with the password to view the whole album) This is all I can do :shrug: I have a gal on the John Kerry forum who has done this for me in the past. Let me know if anyone is willing. Thanks! DC

12. Thank you!!

It's on it's way. I only sent the one of Aidan until we see if this works, OK? :bounce: :loveya: DC

13. OK, here we go... What a sweetie he is!

[JanusAscending]

14. Thank you!!!

I so appreciate your doing this for me. After reading the article about Crystal children, I was more convinced than ever. He is now two, he is still not putting sentences together, but after having some speech therapy, he is saying many more words. We thought that perhaps he was slightly autistic!! He is also a dare devil when it comes to climbing, as the article stated. I pray that I can do this angel justice as a mentor, as well as a Nana. Oh, and he goes around saying "hi"! to everyone and giving out kisses. The other day my daughter took him to his weekly playgroup, and she turned around for a second and he was gone. She found him sitting at a picnic table in the park,with another woman and her children, happily partaking of their lunch with them!!!! My daughter laughed and apologized to them. I will probably be asking for a lot of guidance from this group ((family)) in the near future!!:grouphug: DC

15. Oh, DC, he's ADORABLE!

Definitely a crystal--you can tell by the look in his eye! Not surprising he was found having lunch with strangers--that is SO what they do on a regular basis! Never let them (the PTB) tell you he's autistic. It's a common misdiagnosis. These kids just learn differently, and on their own time. :hi:

16. Thank you MG

Now you see why I needed you all to see him ? Even a Nana needs validation once in a while. His Mommy was an extremely beautiful baby too. Since Aidan was born, not so much ! She developed terrible acne during her pregnancy, plus it blew her thyroid off kilter and had to have it "zapped"! She's still trying to get her figure back, and it's been tough because she's got two huge fibroids in her uterus. It's a miracle she was able to conceive!! She was also a miracle baby (preemie of 3 lbs)That's another long story I will share some day. God has been good to me is the best I can do right now! I've been blessed.O8) :loveya:

2. I think you tried to link an album--

Try linking a few pictures individually, by doing the copy and paste as noted above. Would love to see them.

I'm not sure how to link an album :shrug:

3. I must have missed some memos. But what is a crystal grandchild?

I have seen this name being mentioned quite frequently but am not familiar with it.

Thanks for your help.

6. Hello to you

I trust that you are well and optimistic?

[JanusAscending]

7. Hello!

I did this already, but for some reason they insist on putting the 5 pictures I uploaded into an album???? I fiddled with the thing all evening, and I'm giving up for tonight. My computer illiteracy is showing, and I am :blush: :dunce: Took an Ativan for back pain and going to bed. I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks for trying to help. DC:hi:

8. There is a post on this page,

by Lildreamer316 about halfway down the page, referring to chrystal children, with some links I believe. As you can see, I'm new to this too.

9. I'm sorry, your link doesn't take me to Photobucket.

In photobucket you will be uploading to your own "album".
Find the photo you want in your album, click on "direct link". This will put the link
onto your clipboard.
Then go to the DU place you want to be, Either "post" or "reply".
In the message (where I am now), right click and click "paste".
When you have done that click "preview" to make sure the pix is there.
