It sounds like you really had a wonderful time! I wish I could have been at AGPNY to meet you!

You know...my mother's life long best friend was named Bea, or Beatrice. She's gone now...but will always be remembered by my family as "Grandma Bea". Whenever I hear that name I think of her. She was spunky, and sweet. I have very few childhood memories that don't include her. My children loved her, too.

Congrats on your Josefina, too. She's a gorgeous doll.
