Everything is going well and now I understand why people told me they don't have time. I now understand what busy really means.
Elizabeth is doing great and we are having fun.
We thank Carol, Steve, and Samantha for a wonderful time at their Tet party. We enjoy hanging out with the other families sharing stories.
We will write more soon. Thank you again for your support on the journey.
Our ramblings of our family events -- especially focused on our Journey to Elizabeth. Which hopefully soon we will focus on the Journey with Elizabeth.
