We had the most amazing day at Gladney! Pastor Stephen came all the way from VA to do the Placement Ceremony at the Gladney Chapel with our family and our birthmother and her family. Rebecca Rose was the center of the candle lighting ceremony as we all share our love for her! It was a blessed event that we will remember always.

Being at Gladney of course always brings back memories of Daniel's placement, as well as our orientation in March 2005. If someone had told us then that 5 years and 4 months later that we would have 2 children because of Gladney and the wonderful work they do, I'm not sure we would have believed it. We are now doubly blessed as our family is complete.
