NEW PICTURES, MEDICAL UPDATE, AND PRE-APPROVAL!!!

TODAY HAD BEEN VERY STRANGE. IT ALL STARTED AT 2:30 AM WHEN I GOT A TEXT MESSAGE THAT MY BEST FRIEND'S NEPHEW AND MY VERY DEAR FRIEND HAD PASSED AWAY. SO, WE START SEARCHING FOR A FLIGHT TO BE WITH THE FAMILY. GOD WAS ON OUR SIDE. WE FOUND A ROUND TRIP FLIGHT FOR $450.00. SO, WE GOT OFF WORK AND WENT STRAIGHT TO THE AIRPORT. WE WERE IN AIRPORTS PRETTY MUCH ALL DAY. I THEN DROVE AN EXTRA 75 MILES IN THE FOG TO VISIT MY FAMILY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. I DECIDED TO CHECK MY E-MAIL BEFORE CRASHING AND GUESS WHAT? I GOT PRE-APPROVAL!!!!! NOT ONLY DID I GET PA, I ALSO GOT 8 NEW PICTURES (BLOGGER WILL NOT LET ME UPLOAD), AND A 4 MONTH MEDICAL UPDATE. MAYA IS 11 LBS NOW. THE DOCTOR SAYS THAT SHE IS IN PERFECT HEALTH. SHE IS LAUGHING OUT LOUD NOW. TOO SWEET!!SHE IS SO CUTE. IN A COUPLE OF THE PICTURES SHE HAS ON HUGE SANTA HAT. I LOVE THEM!!! SHE IS WEARING AN OUTFIT,SHOES, AND BOW THAT I LEFT WITH HER. IT IS SO NEAT TO SEE THEM IN THINGS THAT YOU HAVE BOUGHT. IN 8 DAYS I WILL BE HOLDING MY LITTLE ANGEL. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER BEAUTIFUL SMILE. I WILL TRY AND POST THE PICTURES IN THE MORNING.
