Sounds like you did fabulous Rose and Tracy!!!!! I'm sure it's a little 
overwelming...maybe alot?? BUT...having her home will be so nice for you 
all...it's so much more comfortable at home....makes everything feel 
so...normal and homey even when it's a whole lot of things that you've never 
had to do before :o) Take care...and may the force be with you :o)
