ALL CAPS = shouting.
We're very happy that your daughter is thrilled with her bid. But shouting from the rooftops is usually reserved for other things.
Seriously, congratulations to your daughter!

Yes, please stop posting all in capital letters.
Otherwise, congratulations on your daughter being happy in her new AOII home.
Now run over here and buy cute AOII stuff for her:

I think this top (on the right) is cute:
and while you're at it, you can get these for yourself:
('Tis the AOII Mother's Pin..that phonetically spells out "MOTHER" in case you were wondering....)
And the AOII Mom shirt:

Honeychile, using all caps is quite appropriate since she is an AOII. Maybe for ADPi she would use that shift key. Ha ha ha Kidding!
Congratulation Bama Mom!

Actually, it's just plain old Greek. It spells MHTHR ( meter), the older Greek form of the word meaning "mother" (and the source of the Latin mater).
Tau + Eta =/= "th" in Greek -- that's what Theta is for. If you want to get something phonetically close to "mother" using Greek letters, MOQER would be perhaps be the closest.
Congrats to your daughter, AOII Bama Mom!

MysticCat, thanks for explaining.

Thank you for providing me with the AOII website. I love the silver toggle bracelet. They have many cute items on that page. I now have a great source for Christmas gifts.

I am new at this--I didn't know that all caps was inappropriate. Thanks for telling me----I would have never guessed that all caps was a no no and that people read it as shouting. Sorry if I hurt your ears. I will try to keep my voice down until something extraordinary happens. However, this was an exciting moment for my daughter and I. I apologize for being so annoying!!!

We all need to learn sometime!  I know that 90% of my message board "knowledge" was taught to me by others on message boards. Please forgive me if I came off as rude or sanctimonious.

That's okay - not everyone is a message board junkie like some of us (whether GC or other boards). 
Its forgiveable when its an honest mistake from a newbie (newbie to message boards in general, not just GC).
And congratulations to your daughter.
