For Jules


The package arrived Wednesday!! I video the grand opening. I will post here soon.  I haven’t been able to prep the raw footage and load it on YouTube and then post here.

It’s been a loooooong week and when you see the video you will see the package arrived exactly when it was suppose to. 

My niece Elizabeth, who is 11, is on her way from Nashville, via $outhwest. She is arriving in 2 hours. 
Sooooo much to do before Niece Bethie gets here. I am bravely taking next week off in the middle of a huge project. YIKES!! 

Jules, you have made this wait for Hazel wonderful. The gifts keep it real. And you made me feel very special. No one gets enough of feeling special and for that words can not express my gratitude. I am forever grateful. I am so glad you are apart of this journey. 

Love, 
Beth (in the next 24/7 I’m going to be exclusively Aunt Bethie)

PS Later today I am taking my princess to the ballet. I’ll be posting pics and vids of our week together.

Eighteen Down ~ How Many More To Go?



I have been saving this little ditty for the 18 month LID anniversary. Once upon a time when my agency still thought the wait would be less than 12 months. I called them to find out about my 1-797C renewals. I was concerned, because the rumors where indicating a 36 month wait for 2006 LIDs. That meant 2 renewals and lots more money. They kindly and confidently assured me the wait would never reach 18 months and I didn’t even have to think about renewing at all.


OK, 12 months have come and gone. I have done my first renewal. Where’s my baby?

Ignorance is not bliss in this case.

I am peeking over the top of my rose colored glasses and I see the 2nd renewal in August ‘09 and a late 2009 referral.

Disclaimer:
(I love my agency. I know that they never intended to miss guide me.)

On the lighter side, my friend Cindy will be seeing her baby’s face in the next few months. WOOHOO
