Billboard: Slaying the Giants

Kind-Hearted Warrior is "Fabulous 14"; True Princess G.A. is "8"; everyone, including Hazel, has been photographed for the care package photo albums; the care package gifts were purchased;  letters of love and welcome have been written; and the video, complete with a house tour and family introductions in Spanish has been done and burned to a DVD.

Hallelujah!  The GIANT has been slain.

The theme of 'Thunder's' photo album was monkeys, and the theme of 'Lightning's' photo album was frogs.  Each picture was embellished was sparkling stickers consistent with the photo album theme.

You can imagine my delight when I found monkey and frog back packs at Target (love Target!) to pack their gifts into.

For 'Thunder' I chose to include the hand held LOOPZ game, the sock monkey from his bed (sprayed with my cologne), a blue, scented MONSTER marker, a Buzz Light Year action figure, a USA t-shirt (sprayed with Knight-in-Shining Armor's cologne), extra batteries, and some stickers.

For 'Lightning', I chose to include a shiny metallic blue child's flip phone that rings.  When he answers the phone by flipping open the lid, he will push a PLAY button to hear a message, in Spanish, pre-recorded by ME, his mommy!  His back pack also contains the sock monkey from his bed (sprayed with my cologne), a green, scented MONSTER marker, a WOODY action figure, a USA t-shirt (sprayed with Knight-in-Shining Armor's cologne), extra batteries, and some stickers.

The deadline to mail the care package was yesterday.

Hazel saying, "CHEESE!" for her photo album picture.

Kind-Hearted Warrior turns "Fabulous 14"!

"BEE Happy!  It's GREAT to be 8!"
True Princess is "8"!
For you, 'Thunder'.  With love.


For you, 'Lightning'.  With love.

Destination...Cali, Colombia!
