fingernails
Today I noticed that Betty isn’t biting her fingernails anymore…they are getting pretty long. I am thinking that’s a good sign, right?
I let Betty paint my fingernails…it was a lot of fun and a total lesson for me in “letting go.” Still have so much to let go of…

I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink
First Gift! Everyone give $10 TODAY!
Every day, 4500 mothers bury their children due to contaminated water. They are forced to sustain their families with a diabolical liquid that contains both life and death. This lack of clean water is the leading cause of death in underdeveloped nations. And it just doesn't have to be!
$10 will provide one person in Africa clean water for 10 years. It will literally change and possibly save someone's life. A mother. A child. A brother. A grandfather.
We are rallying together for a cause. Clean water. One day. $10. Asking everyone to let this be their first gift. Let water, let life be their first gift of the season.
Click here to be directed to the secure donation site of the highly recognized, non-profit, charity: water (then click Yellow Donate Button) All donations are tax deductible, and 100% of your donation will go to clean water solutions in West Africa.

Celebrating Betty- part 3
Our final celebration was a little party with friends. Betty loved it and seemed at home with all the attention and gifts!!
her first princess dress!
There was also a piñata but I failed to take any pictures – which is a shame because it was so fun! Hoping one of my friends captured the moment!
I am so happy that Betty is our daughter and that we got to celebrate this special first birthday together!!
