PGN and Babbling about the Name

I don't have any new, news. Except that there was someone on the forum that was a resubmit, on 7/8. They were just let out of PGN today. THat brings me some hope, that was 22 days. So I will be watching like mad in about 9 more days.

I have just started inviting a few people onto this blog from my forum. Welcome!!

The reason I do not have it open is because my agency said that she is not legally my daughter yet. So I had to change it over to private.

About her name: My Grandma , who was the sweetest thing made, always told me that she loved names that were in songs. So I had to come up with one that nobody had. I loved the song " Ave Maria ", it almost always brings tears to my eyes whenever I hear it. So I decided to name my little peanut "Avea Maria" The last time I heard it, we were in Guatemala, there was a girl singing it to the POPE on the T.V., that was the last time I have heard it. It'll definately turn me into a mess now if I hear it.

I let my mom and Mikes mom decide how to spell it, either Aveya or Avea, they decided on Avea. This led me to a problem, I want an accent over the " e ". I can do it in the subject line of a email, I can do it all over on other peoples PC's. But I can't do it down in the posting areas. You have to hit the " ctrl " then the apostrophe or the accent next to the "1" key, THen hit the vowel. It works, but not on my PC. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this or if I have to change a setting on my PC. Without the accent, it looks like a different spelling of AVA. And I can't have that.

Her given name is Virginia De Los Angeles, this means Virgin of the Angels, I named her Avea Maria after the Virgin Mary. I thought that was kind of cool, being I had her name before we knew anything. Anyway, this is how we came up with her name.
