End of an era

OK, it's not that dramatic but today the ladies-who-lunch celebrated the final member of the group receiving their referral and that member was me!! The girls spoiled me with balloons and Nana Susan made mint oreo cheesecake squares. Thanks Nana Susan!!

It was weird, me walking into a lunch sans cupcakes or cake. It was fun though and the girls spoiled Maisie with lots of great gifts. It's amazing to think that when we started this process and the CCAA was matching full months, the seven of us would have traveled back to back and all would have been home by early summer. Yet here we are with our travel dates covering almost all of 2006. Soon Maisie will be home and the ladies who lunch will be complete with their seven new little cuties. (Until the second round of adoptions begin!!)





Thanks Cindy, Julie, Daphne, Jill, Sonia, Stephanie and of course little Liza for all the wonderful gifts, a great lunch and for sharing in this exciting roller coaster experience.
