Gosh, looks so graceful too!! I sure have to say I was wrong on my prediction, did not think the wings would open so nicely. Can't wait to see the second one come along.
Hope you feel all the work was worth it, I for one am so grateful for what you all have done in keeping us on top and involved. Thanks.

Absolutely the coolest thing to see this school year. Can't wait to show the kids. And exactly how long did it take you to figure out it was a girl?
