We had a wonderful Christmas Eve starting with Becca and I doing an art project (thank you Kiwi crate). Becca wanted a centerpiece for the kids table so we made one! Then we headed to church for Christmas Eve family service. Claire and Becca got dressed up and participated in the live Christmas Story! Becca liked being the one star that guided everyone to baby Jesus. Michael surprised me with a special Christmas Eve dinner of lobster tail and gnocchi with vodka sauce. It was delicious and I was so touched. Daniel wanted everyone to go to bed at 7pm so that Santa would come. He could barely eat anything. Becca could not fall asleep so Daddy played Yahtzee with her on iPad. We left cookies and carrots and chocolate milk for Santa!
We first heard about Gladney Center for Adoption in January of 2005 when we met with Pastor Stephen and Paula. In March of 2005 we attended an orientation at Gladney in Fort Worth, Texas. We adopted Daniel on September 12, 2007! Now we are waiting for a special child to complete our family.
