Re: Angelina is a helmet grad!!!

[Guest guest]

CONGRATS & Angelina! How wonderful! What a journey your

family has had...Angelina is so lucky to have such love & support

around her. That's wonderful that your local media is paying

attention, if you can help even one other person it's so worth it,

you know?

Enjoy your holidays and your little (standing) girl's soft round head!

Hi ,

That is wonderful. Congratulations to you and Angelina. Let us

know if you can post before and after pictures of the little

beauty. Also congrats on the pulling up. I know the reacuring tilt

is frustrating, but just keep working at it. You are doing a fine

job, and we are glad to have you on board.

What great news ! I'm so happy for you guys to be finished

with those trips. What a tough guy your husband is, LOL! I'm glad

they didn't get any money from him and that it ended there. I hope

you'll try and post pictures again when is being more

cooperative. I'd love to see the article when it comes out too. In

our files section there is a folder for them, so let us know if

you're able to add it!

...congratulations to you and Angelina! I'm so glad to hear

that she is a graduate. Not so glad to hear about your dh's

mugging. But he sounds awesome, the way he popped him one! Go

Hubby! Anyway, sounds like she is growing by leaps and bounds, wait

till she figures out that walking is right there in front of her and

all she has to do is take the step. Boy are you in for it then.

Please let us know when Lina gets to be in the paper. I would love

to see it.
