Christmas with Susanna




We were blessed to spend some time together as a family with Susanna just before Christmas. We drove down as a family to show the rest of the children where their sister lives, take Susanna to dinner and bring her some gifts. It was nice for everyone to share in Susanna's joy as she showed us all her special room filled with TONS of gifts she had received over the last few days. Aside from the wonderful caretakers she is living with, many churches also blessed Susanna with their generosity. Susanna is so happy to live where God has currently placed her. This makes her family very happy, too.

After having our family's photo taken in front of the Christmas tree that Susanna helped to decorate, she opened a few gifts. Then off to Chili's restaurant we all went. Chili's is a family favorite, especially for Tamy who loves their mango tea. Susanna appeared to enjoy our outing together but was most glad to be back "home" again. We praise God that she is being so well cared for by such loving, godly people.
