I am anxiously awaiting the bid-day results for kate, as well as the decoding!

Good luck to the other relatives who have posted in this thread as well!

Good luck to the girls who I'm sure are eagerly awaiting their bids today!

None of the moms who I am scheduled to attend bid day with have received a phone call from a tearful daughter, so we are guessing that we are good to go! Off to Auburn to have lunch with our daughters, and then to bid day! I am so excited for more than one reason; yes I am very happy for her to join a sorority. Mostly, I am thrilled that she has asked me to be with her on this day! Who knows how many times this will happen in the future once she is comfortable and spreads her wings. All I know is that her simple little request for me to come to Auburn to be with her today has given me more joy than I can express! I never knew how much small gestures towards mom and dad meant until I became a parent of a teen myself. A hug, and time spent together is priceless to me!

I'm so happy for all those lucky girls! Can't wait to get back home this afternoon to hear where everyone went.

Awwww, yay for no news being good news (and your remarks are so sweet, I'm 22 and I am so glad that I'm sick at home with my mom to make me feel better. Moms rule)! Here's to hoping your daughter and all her friends have found their homes this afternoon (and that you come back ASAP and tell us where) - I keep checking back hoping it's time, but sadly, it's not. Fingers crossed for all the PNMs whose stories we've heard here.

AWAwwww

I'll be here at 3:00pm, too.
Or maybe closer to 4:00pm since we'll have to anxiously wait for AuburnMom to make it to a computer following distribution of bids!
Can't wait!

I was getting all excited as well that 3:00 would get here soon until I realized that it was 3:00 Central time! That means I have to wait until 4:00 Eastern time to hear (actually, it will probably be closer to 4:30 by the time all the calls and postings get done).

No phone call from Kate either so, since it is almost 10am, I am taking that as a good sign! I really, really wish I could be at Auburn for bid day, but alas, geographically I am located too far from Alabama to return for bid day. Her father and I were there last weekend helping her move in and I'd give my left kidney to be back there today. She was very understanding about the situation, but I hate that I am going to miss it. WarEagle07, you have to take really, really good notes and when you update the board with your daughter's sorority, you have to give me all of the detail of what went on in Auburn today!

5 hours and counting......

A very good sign!

We'll wait here with you!!!
