Another Care Package On It's Way, And Other Ramblings...

We have ordered a care package through Red Thread China for Liya. This one is nothing fancy: a camera, letter with questions, candy for orphanage and foster family, and 2 toys for Liya. We got her a Minnie Mouse phone, b/c we noticed in her birthday pics that she is playing with either a real cell phone or a toy one. We also got her a panda nesting toy. You know, like the Russian doll toys that fit inside each other? Only it's pandas..lol! I have been lady bug and panda obsessed lately, it seems. I wonder why? Hmm....lol!

We are starting a 100 good wishes quilt for Liya. I have joined in my first quilting square swap, and I am excited to give/receive such wonderful keepsakes. I will post the quilt's progress from time to time, so stay tuned.

Also, our I800a made it to it's first destination, a Chicago lock box facility, on September 2nd. We are waiting to hear when our appointments for fingerprints will be.
That's it for now---hurry up and wait seems to be the theme now {sigh}
