Christopher update

Nothing new here. Last night I sent out a mass email to family and friends (you may have gotten it) updating the process. It pretty much explained the wait is much longer than we expected and that Michael and I are okay with that.

Then I decided to organize a post card exchange over at my personal blog. If you are interested in that or just wanted to be added to our email list, email me at amyschristopher@comcast.net and include your LID!! We have several people signed up for it!

I also updated them on the quilt, we have 34 squares right now. Several people have asked to exchange squares and as soon as I can cut squares in a straight line, I will take you up on that offer.

One of my yahoo groups suggested getting a visual countdown on Log in days. So I am off to go window shopping and heading to a thrift store. Someone suggested finding the amount of rocks that's the same number of LIDs until ours and putting them in a large clear, container. Each month take the amount of LIDs that were matched and put them in another decorated container. I will let you know what a find. THen I am going more window shopping to Ross and Marshall's..Fun Fun Fun!!!

what a great idea about the rocks! During our wait, I ate a piece of chocolate each day as a countdown--guess that wasn't very healthy!!

I'll take a picture of my 100 good wishes quilt and post it on my blog so you can see how it turned out--I am so excited to see yours!!
