Thank you, ButterflyPrincess! Yours is adorable too! :-)

I'll make it a Baker's Dozen by being #13 to sign up!

KarenFife 07/21/2009 #

Oops - I can't count. I just teach preschool - we only go to 10!

ButterflyPrincess 07/21/2009 #

Some of mine will have to be handmade! ;)

ButterflyPrincess 07/21/2009 #

Oh never mind! Sorry! ;(

Butterfly Princess---You can make and send handmade postcards---completely acceptable.

KarenK, We have an opening in our Head Start Class. Our kids can count to 20 before they move on to kindergarten. LMOL Aren't they fun?

I'm so excited to get partners!! :)

KarenFife 08/ 1/2009 #

The coordinator, missmollybygolly, hasn't logged in for 6 days. Does anyone else get concerned about things like this??

scalpelplease05 08/ 2/2009 #

I've read this hosts ratings and profile... perhaps she is sick or something is wrong with her mother... Does anyone know how to get swap-bot to assign instead of the coordinator??

KarenFife 08/ 2/2009 #

I think the swap is just automatically canceled after 5 days.

scalpelplease05 08/ 3/2009 #

I would really like to do this swap. Would anyone be interested in joining if I hosted??

KarenFife 08/ 3/2009 #

I'm interested. Can you PM the current participants so everyone knows you are hosting it? If you post a new swap, people can drop this swap and join yours.

ive been waitin on my partners :( can someone please let me know if someone is taken this over?

j2fabfunk 08/ 4/2009 #

I would be interested too :)

Gabrielle 08/ 4/2009 #

I have been watching for partners, too. If someone takes it over do count me in!

Since someone mentioned the swaps are deleted after 5 days, and I don't know if that's true or not, I created a substitute swap for this today, the 5th day, before all the participants might be lost. You can find it at http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/42524. If someone else wants to start another similar swap, please feel free, and I promise I won't be offended (seeing as how I didn't come up with this idea in the first place). :)

I am sorry---My mother got admitted to inpatient hospice the day of this swap and I have been out of it. My mother is in her final days and is very close to death. I apologize I overlooked sending partners. Please accept my sincerest apologies.

goodgollymissmolly 08/ 5/2009 #

I extended the send by deadline. Because some people dropped out (understandably so), we will have fewer partners than 13 as there are only 11 of us total...sorry this happened.
