Halloween, 2014: TBT

TBT: Six years ago tonight, we had just finished trick or treating, and, over pizza, I confided to our friends about this beautiful baby with amazing eyes. Roger and I had been approved for the Special Needs List, and I just kept going back to one of the babies. I could close my own eyes and see her looking at me from the top left corner of the screen (and still can!). As I told our friends about this baby, I shared that her special needs seemed to go beyond what we had agree...d that we could handle. Yet, I couldn't stay away from staring at her photo, every time that I turned on the computer. Blessedly, our friends encouraged us to get more information about the precious baby in the picture who would soon become our incredible Ellie-Kate. Thanks to Dan Modaff and Jennifer Butler Modaff for being such great friends and such an important part of our journey as a family. Trick or treat night gained a special place in our heart that night, six years ago.
