And then here come the additional thanks for other types of support...
THANK YOU to everyone who has shared our Facebook posts, emails, and blog - we have had an outstanding number of shares and the blog shows we have had nearly 900 views. Crazy!
And thank you to my main editors:
Mom - for editing all the things.
Stephanie - for editing and helping finesse the wee e-book.
And, I can't even begin to thank Sue for all her help with planning this fundraiser and particularly with helping me to clarify my message.
It has taken a lot of time and encouragement for us to work up the nerve to publicize our request for money to fund this adoption - and Sue has helped me to be more clear about exactly what we need, which is really awkward to say, but, it really is, just, we need money. If you ever find one of my messages too wishy washy and unclear, blame me; if you ever find one of my messages too forward - blame Sue. Sue, you are the best. Did I mention: thank you?!
And - of course - thank you to my aunts Rhonda and Monica and Grandma Marlene and everyone helping them to put on the MI fundraiser.
I am sure I have forgotten 50 or more specific people that should also be thanked in this post... please forgive me!
And then, consider us and HOW CLOSE WE ARE to 50% and how the panda below inspires you to help us get over the metaphorical rail!
