Thanksgiving!

  We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had so much to be thankful for! Of course this year we really had a lot to be thankful for since God brought M into our lives. This Thanksgiving we had two big shin-digs to attend. The first one was Kyle's side and then the Saturday after turkey day we had my side. 20 people at each one. We were so excited because this was the first time many of our family met M! After they met him, I became even more thankful for our families. 

  It was such a blessing to see both of our families wrap M up with love. Both of our families have been very supportive with Kyle and I through this process, but the way they surrounded M and showed him what family meant made us very thankful. In two days, M met great grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins for the first time!

  I'm so thankful for God placing M with us. He gave us the gift of being parents and gave M the gift of having a home and a loving family. I know without a doubt all of this is working for His glory.

Going to bed Thanksgiving night, we asked M what he was thankful for. This was his list.

•God creating the world

•his Toys

•Jesus dying on the cross

•his new dogs

•his new parents.
