My card is honoring the BEST Christmas gift I every recieved...
In November 2005 my DH and I got our referral of a baby girl in China to adopt. We so wanted to travel at Christmas, but did not get to China to adopt her and bring her home until January 2006. We made ornaments from her picture and decorated our tree with her beautiful perfect little face that year. She is the joy of our lives, a living gift of God's grace.
