Mary, I'm so happy for you and Mei Ling!!
Your mom's neighbor sounds like a wonderful person - I'm glad you're going to put together a basket for him, that's a great idea.
PLEASE, make sure your parents repair all the holes in their fence if your babies are going to be staying with them. No more scares like this, ok?
