Twas the day before the night before Christmas....

when all through the CC*A

Not a person was stirring, not even a single LOA;

Our paperwork has been in and sitting on a desk,

In hopes that some nice person would approve us once again.

Rachel is all ready and waiting for us,

With visions of a forever family swirling in her head.

And momma with her suitcase packed

and Baba all ready to depart....

won't be settled until all are home again.

When out in the drive there arose such a a clatter,

I sprang up to see what was the matter,

Away to the window I flew like a flash

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

Could it be, a Christmas miracle indeed?

No, just some idiot on a tractor plowing the snow.

Oh where oh where will this all lead???

I want my LOA!!!!

Ok, I feel better now. Just needed to vent. Now onto what I've been working on....

I can't handle anymore baking, I think I've gained about 10 pounds this week. They might have to roll me on the plane by the time our TA gets here.

Gracie J's birthday dress. Still needs some tweaks here and there but there you have it. This will also be on the sewing blog for sale.
