Hi Young Family- love your blog. Do you happen to know where Mama Judy got the cat mugs? I have a daughter who loves black cats. Looks like the cocoa is from Harry and David, but couldn't find the mugs? Thanks, and good luck with your adoption, we're keeping you in our prayers!

I know just how you feel. I can't wait to get put on the wait lists. We've been held up for so long with the darn fingerprints and it is so exciting to be this close.
