Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Christy, SO Glad to hear that it is over. What an ordeal for both of you. I could just picture it. Congrats to your sister. Well the hard part is over and I look forward to hearing about her great progress that you will see in no time. Thanks for posting her pics - I haven't looked yet but I'm betting she is adorable!!
