thank you dear friends

i was waiting to write special thank you notes to everyone who has supported us by sharing their wealth or experience along the way. i imagined it would be some frufru card with a picture of us all on Gotcha Day(if everyone is smiling and not screaming) and the children's signatures there too.

reality is, that i have been humbled and profoundly moved when people have shown their love to us with donations. i don't know what to say, so I'll just say thank you and give a hug. what could you do to let people know how much they are loved in return when there are so many to be counted?

i didn't want people to think their care has been taken lightly or forgotten. i will try to send out fancy cards later, but for now... 

i can start by just saying thank you once again. i am blessed beyond reasonabalality (so much so that i made up my own word).

thank you dear sisters J and D for setting up a chip-in on their blog pages.
