Paul’s Birthday
As devastated as we are that Paul died, we’re so glad he was born. We’re constantly grateful that WE got to be his family. I’m so glad that I got to be his mom, instead of someone who would have aborted him because he wasn’t physically perfect. I’m glad he had us instead of someone who would have abandoned him in the ICN like one of his neighbors’ moms did.

MANY thanks to Mark, Bobbi, and Adri for coming to the cemetery with us today so we weren’t alone in our grief. Thank you also to them for the beautiful flowers (Adri) and the balloons (Mark & Bobbi).
Thank you to Grandma Ruthie & Grandpa Gil for the sweet card you sent for Paul.
Thank you to “Grandma Elsie” for buying some flowers for Paul for his birthday.
Thank you to Susy, Carol, and Diane for your emails acknowledging today.
Thank you also to Patrice and Christa for your phone messages.
We are SO grateful for all the various forms of support we’ve gotten from everyone; it means so much to us.
