Rach,
I was just in the gift shop at the Nat Geo museum and as I was leaving, there's this huge picture of Andrew (same picture as on the museum's website). My knees immediately got weak. I went to the information desk to make sure the talk was still on--it is! My hubby is getting a kick out of me!
Ladies, thanks for all the well wishes. 28 hours to go!
Rach, I'm watching my son swim and trying to figure out my new camera. The short version: I couldn't find my camera, and my husband was the last to see it. I started to freak, thinking he left it at home. We hike all over DC looking for a Radio Shack to buy me a new camera. Not more than 2 minutes after we leave the store, I remembered that I moved the camera to a safer bag. Since it's much higher resolution, my husband said, "Happy Mother's Day a little late."
My son's the proud owner of my old camera!
Sandy that is too funny about your camera. I guess your are getting a multiple Mother's Day gift. A new camera and Andrew. :) I don't think I ever told anyone this but I did get to see Andrew in a play once. I brought my 1,000.00 camera with and I was at a restraunt and dropped it on the floor. Thank God it didn't braek. But yes I was freaking out.
