I was scared to death when Jodie posted what I wrote. I really had no idea if anyone would want one or if 200 people would e-mail me in the first 30 seconds. But the response has been perfect! The post went up on Friday and as of a few minutes ago, I have 33 orders. I did most of the work on thirteen penguins before the post....all they needed was numbers and sticks (have to put them in the correct "wing"). Unfortunately, I didn't think that would take all that long. It did. I spent most of the weekend on it. Live and learn.
But today I have ten penguins in envelopes ready to go to the post office. And I must say, as I packed them up, I started to tear up a little. These little guys have been perched around my living room for a few weeks now. And just looking at all those faces made me feel like I was sending my children into the world!
I hope they all enjoy their new homes in Austin, Omaha, Norman, Ontario, Pittsburgh, Nova Scotia, Gibsonia, North Tonawanda, Chicago, and Clifton! Soon they will have teammates flying off to other exotic destinations. They just better call or write once in awhile...don't forget where you came from, boys!
The boys get in one more game before they head to their new homes(notice Mario....always looking on :) )
Me and my "babies"Fly! Be free!!
