So Close...

to meeting another online family who I have met thru blogging since our adoption. Many of you within our CHI circle may have noticed a comment written by Laura. For a long time, she left comments and I could never figure out who she was. I would ask other fellow CHI'ers, and they wondered the same thing. Somehow in the process, we connected and her identity was exposed! Laura S. has adopted an infant named Mateo from Colombia this past year. She lives in Atlanta. She is a photographer there and does great work. I have put her blog address on the side bar. She follows many of us from CHI and often leaves encouraging and informational comments. Please check out her blog and do the same!

We thought we were going to get to meet in person this weekend as she was in Biloxi with her family on business. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, and the unpredictably of a group of 3 siblings, we weren't able to make it over to see her. I didn't want to be rushed, and I seem to have the gift of gab (not always seen as a gift), and I didn't want them to feel as if they had "to wait" for us as they had other obligations....so, we will have to postpone our meeting...and hope to meet up in Atlanta soon. I have not been to Georgia, except the airport...sounds like a fun getaway!

Hate that we missed the opportunity to meet up too! we had a lot of fun while there. It was great to show off Mateo to our family and he did amazing staying in a hotel for 4 days. Andres took him to the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center yesterday and he loved it! He's already talking about taking him back next time we come down. Hopefully you guys will be able to come up to the big city soon. Between the zoo, aquarium, Children's center, center for Puppetry Arts, botanical garderns, baseball, football, hockey, basketball, etc...I'm sure we can find something to do! LOL!
