More Photos of Matteo and no ability to focus on work....

Well finally a bit of news...got an email today with 18 new photos of Matteo, taken I believe on Monday October 4...and sent today. And as you can imagine all I keep doing is looking at them and not concentrating on my marking....so exciting....especially to see him holding the toy I sent, (see cropped photo below) makes it all the more real!. Apparently there were photos taken of Matteo at his medical on August 17 that were never sent to me. Lea was with Dorinda on Monday heading to Vung Tau and she said Dorinda tried to resend them...but did not get them yet. Dorinda is now either back in HCMC or already on her way back to Canada....so got that bit of news....will write if and when I hear more....for now just feeling so blessed....today is the anniversary of my mom's death, so getting Matteo's photos today has made a sad day into a day of joy. Matteo and my mom share the same birthday month, Matteo May 30, my mom May 24....so have from the start felt a special connection and getting the photos today affirms it again.....anyhow I will now see if I can get some work done...but I doubt it!! Had to share...

  1. Youppi, que je suis contente pour toi ! Tu en as eu beaucoup, chanceuse !

    Ces photos ne sont pas arrivées à cette date là par hasard, de nouveaux doux et beaux souvenirs viennent d'entrer dans ta tête, ils vont t'aider à adoucir la douleur de ta mère.

    Alors mets en plein sur les murs ! Je voudrais tellement être pas loin de toi pour voir le photos...j'ai très hâte de les voir quand le temps viendra !
