Got it finally!
Everybody needs to keep in mind that my plane leaves at 12:40pm today. So yesterday mom and I tracked down the "Callie" in the Miami-ish post office yesterday and I probably talked to him about 42 times. He was so great he even called me at work right after he had put the package on the truck to Atlanta. Then this morning about 9:30 we went to the Chamblee post office and after talking to the woman behind the counter for a long time she finally told us that packages go from South of the city (the big distribution center) to the North Atlanta blah de-blah and where it was. So my and I drove there. We arrived about 10:15am where we explained the whole situation. The woman behind the counter checked for us when we got there and then I hung out in a chair in the lobby while mom went to the bank. I sat there and eventually heard a announcement for the incoming Express mail delivery. So after the woman behind the counter got done with her customer I told her I thought I had heard the announcement. She went to the back and found my package which she handed over to me and had me sign but she never checked my ID. Now I am just sitting in the Atlanta airport at D23 waiting to get on my first plane, so I can get on my second plane to go to Milan. I am so excited and so nervous I will post when I get there and send you guys pictures of my new home and new family.

Erica, please know that we love you and will miss you, and yes we are all living vicariously through you. Write often and send pictures.
This family is lucky to have such a great au-pair on the way to take care of them.
Love you, Kay
