At this time last year.........

I was at the absolute lowest point in my life, thinking Chloe was never going to come home!
I sit here with tears realizing that she is really home this Christmas.
Thank God from whom all blessings flow.
Merry Christmas,
Teresa

Okay--I'm not so good at this re-sizing picture thing--apparently I made them too small--let's try these!

I love picture parades

This is Gia during our Christmas "photo shoot", as you can see she was thrilled And the second one is her giving the one finger salute, she is a pro at this. The newsboy cap only lasted for two pictures. I always like to think that she is aiming that finger down towards PGN for all of you who are stuck in there.

Oh, my goodness, Eden is getting so big!! She's still as pretty as ever... The year has flown by, hasn't it??

This is Bryce listening while I tried to convince her to see Santa.. She won.. No Santa pics this year!! You can't really see her Christmas outfit, but it's penguins.. We haven't received any Christmas pics of Sofie yet...

Love the pics. Apparently, I am foto impaired as I cannot figure out how to upload our new pictures into the body of a post. I'll have to get MR Computer DH to help me later
