x-mas card

I wanted to share a copy of our christmas card. I thought it would take many attempts and several days to get a decent picture but this was one of the first few pictures I took. I figured, dealing with a hyper pug and a 22 month old toddler, this was a good as it was going to get.

That is so cute! I love it! I was thinking of doing the same thing with the red & white striped pjs and Santa hat on the dog! That's probably why I love it so much!

I believe that there is no such thing as an unwanted child, just unfound families.

"They came to realize family need not be defined merely as those with whom they share blood, but as those for whom they would give their blood." - D!ckens

Birth is an act of nature. Adoption is an act of God.
