Subject: I'm an Auntie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re-posting from the Social Board in case not everyone gets over there these days...

I have been waiting to be able to 'officially' announce this...and since it's being emailed within my family now...I say it's OFFICIAL!! So...please welcome to my family Colton "Cole" Bruce MacDonald!!!

My brother Cliff and his wife Stephanie have been going throught he process of adopting a little boy...and they will be done their classes next week and sign all the papers before the end of the month...and he will be in their home by December 4th!! He is a bit over a year old and the most beautiful little boy imaginable!!

Cut and paste this addy:

My brother is going to be the one to take the 'family leave' because as in a twist of really good fate Stephanie had been interviewing and GOT her 'dream job' during this same time frame!

I SOOOOOO cannot wait to see him in a few weeks...as we are going home for the Thanksgiving week. Without too much detail I will let you know they have known him since he was born and have daily contact with him as well...Cole calls them Mummy and Daddy! I love the little guy already and have never seen him in person!!!

AND...if this wasn't enough...I got a package from ITALY yesterday...a beautiful quilt for wee Cole!! OMG Eva it is beautiful..and will mean so much to my family when they see it!! I will take LOTS of pictures with him and the quilt when I go to see him!!! (I had shared my good news with Judie not that long ago...quilters are amazing!)

My family...like many others of LOLers...USED to think it was weird about our 'online family'...until they saw all you guys did for us when we were going through all the difficulties of my pregnancy with Declan. Now my parents have THREE beautiful grandsons...and my mom thinks she can't handle anymore babies! :)

I think I've rambled and rambled...and probably aren't making any sense now! I've been holding this in and now I think I've just burst! :)
