     Hello All:
     
     I wanted to tell you that we had our NICU reunion on Sunday
     June 2nd.  
     
     What a blast!!!  The girls (and tyler) had alot of fun.  They
     had face painting, treats, games, and performers.  They had one
     clown for balloons and that was it.  They had people dressed in
     different jungle animal costumes.  
     
     I asked why they had no clowns, and was told that the painted faces
     scare the kids so they went with animals ! :)  They even had a
     lady dressed up like a fairy (wings and fairy dust too!), who was
     walking around on stilts and dancing!!!  
     
     I saw the girls' neonatalogist, and the nurses who took care of them.
     I also got to see the nurse who gave me the NICU tour!  It was
     such a special time!!
     
     Yes, I did see other preemies that were in when my girls were.  It
     was great to see them.  
     
     Well, that was what I wanted to share.  Hope you all had a great
     weekend!!  If you get a chance...go to your reunion.  If anything,
     it will make you feel WONDERFUL!!!!
     
     Love,
     Yvonne
