Halle-Grace is receiving early birthday wishes even though her birthday is not until next Wednesday (November 19th). It is hard to believe our tiny miracle is going to celebrate her 1st birthday!
In the last few days she has received cards and gifts from various friends to include the ASU Alumni Association. She will wear her ASU gear with PRIDE! If they make it to the Championship Game for the 4th time, we will for sure take her to see them win #4 in a row! Chancellor Peacock and staff, along with the AWESOME alumni association have been there for support since the beginning of our journey to Halle-Grace...in 2006!
Last night Halle-Grace had a VERY special guest!!! She LOVES LOVES LOVES Heather! She was trying her best to pull EVERY trick out of her bag to impress Heather. She did her touchdown, told her how old she will be next week (by showing her #1), growled, spit (just a little), showed her the "attitude" face and head shake (that is new), and of course said DDDUUUUHHHH and much more. She continued to go through her tricks in hopes of entertaining Heather! She is just TOO FUNNY!
TOUCHDOWN!!!
Nanny visited and presented Halle-Grace with a BEAUTIFUL personalized castle. It is gorgeous, I have never seen anything like it! Nanny, we LOVE it!!! We must find a way to SAFELY display it at the Birthday Bash! And, Papaw Ronnie...thanks for all of your help. You and Jason did so much yesterday! As soon as the 13' tree is up and decorated we will return the ladder! ANYONE can come help with that task!!! LOL
Now for the wish...Jason and I have been thinking a LOT about Halle-Grace and this time last year! One year ago, someone made the most beautiful, unselfish decision...to place Halle-Grace in the care of the nannies at the orphanage. God knew she would be placed in our care in His time. As we reflect on what this time means for Halle-Grace...excitement, fun, ripping into presents, hearing "Happy Birthday to you..." and of course eating CAKE, we can't help but think and pray that someone out there will be blessed beyond belief! There is simply no way to ever repay her birth parents for the gift they gave!!! I hope wherever they are and whatever they are doing...God will in His special way let them know and even give them a glimpse of what life it like for her now! We love her more than we ever thought possible and she is for sure, the most amazing miracle we have witnessed! God Bless Halle-Grace on her 1st birthday and please bless her birth parents!
