After 4 long months, my friends have their travel date !

a mini letter to Ava:

Dear petite mademoiselle Ava,

Your wonderful Mommy and Daddy are so excited that they will soon fly halfway round the world to hug you and bring you home!

When your Mommy called me today to tell me they got the news of their travel dates, I just got chills and happy nervous (almost like 10 months ago when we got our call about our travel date)!

Yahooooo! Mary and everyone else cannot wait to meet you! I told Mary , in between Wiggles videos today, that you were going to be here soon! She said, yeh, apple, elmo, ball, aww done , pop-pop and nein (or was that nine). Not sure, but she will teach you all the words she knows!

Love,
June, Bruce and Mary

She had no nap...

No nap in the stroller, a short nap on the ride to the park, but zonked out in 3.8 minutes en route to chez June & Bruce (now known as Chez Mary, Castello de Mary, Mary's Crib... etc etc).

Mary travels across Pennsylvania to a mega amusement park
