family favor

I know you're wanting to send them, so go ahead! I remember how desperately I wanted any kind of update on our little guy, so I'd like to return the favor and pay it forward. 

If you have a referral and would like me to check in on your babe, please email me @ nellannp at gmail dot com. Send a pic and if there is something really specific you'd like. We're hoping to spend a lot of time at Hannah's Hope (if possible) and I want to do my very best to bring info back home to the waiting families. I know what a joy this was and how it got me through the tough moments! Of course, realistically, I cannot make any promises to see and visit with each (or even any) child, but I really want to try! 

P.S. I still can't believe we're leaving in less than two weeks. Ah! In less than 24 hours, the families in ETH now will be meeting their babes! Goodness, that is great!!!!

Can anyone tell me how to email posts to my blog? I'd like to do this from ETH but don't know how. : (

Go into your settings on the dashboard. Then go to the tab that says e-mail and mobile.
Under posting options you set up an e-mail posting address.
It works beautifully. We never had ANY luck posting pictures with dial up but our post made it onto the blog without any problems.
You can also give it a try before you leave to make sure it works!!
Happy Packing!

if you want to include phots, re-size them to small (i think we did 1200 megapixels?) on our laptop back at the room, then saved our posts and pics on a flash drive that we took down to the lobby and just copied and pasted-the photos you attach to the email like a regular attachment, it worked great-WHEN the internet was working!! :) so excited for your upcoming trip!!

OH!! one other thing-set your gmail to "basic html view" BEFORE you go (it is one of the choices on the main inbox page of your gmail-in blue, along the bottom i think) so that when you try to open it in ETH, it doesn't get bogged down by the gmail graphics and it just shows the words of gmail and it will work MUCH easier. if that doesn't make sense, email me and i will try to explain it a little better :)
