teeth :)

On Saturday we got an email from Marialyn with the subject heading "bedeline" and our hearts stopped. Fortunately the email had only good news: Baby Bedeline has 2 teeth in and one on its way! She is currently eating regular food in tiny pieces, even meat! This is exciting and a bit baffling, causing us to wonder if we get to just bypass all the baby food stuff. She hasn't seen her again, but is hoping to this week.

Fortunately Hurricane Dean bypassed them! Marialyn said on the phone today that it was overcast and a little rainy, but that was it. We are so relieved, having thought that hurricane destruction is the last thing this poor country needs.

We continued to receive donations all this week and our total is now up to $2405! We are amazed at how generous and wonderful our friends and co-workers are.

That's it for now. If we hear that Marialyn has seen Bedeline again, I'll be sure to let you know.
