Happy Holidays!
We wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holiday and thank you again for all of your support this past year. This picture was on our Christmas card and we wanted to share it with the many special friends (Karen in Virigina and others) whose addresses we don't have.
My friend Shannon was with me when we took this photo and we just knew it was special right off the bat. I couldn't put it into words but my friend Anna did, and she managed to describe exactly what it was I saw in this photo:
I dunno - there is just something about the expression on his face -
a little boy who has come through all this, and now he's just free to be a little boy. Triumph? Hope? All those things. I'm being sappy - but that's what I see. It gives me courage. I love it.

Edison is reveling in all of his success and thinking of all the freedom and joys he has yet to experience.

Anna said it well - she captured all the emotions and reactions I experience each time I look at our little fellow who watches me from his spot on my refrigerator door. Merry Christmas to you all - they keep getting better, don't they!

This photo should be in the Sunday Parade section of the newspaper - best picture. It captures every moment of childhood, being loved, and being blessed. Thanks for sharing and may 2007 be the year Edison puts all the past behind him and eats you out of house and home. Ronnie
Edison,
How handsome you are!!! Merry Christmas and many, many blessing for the coming new year!
Your friend in Virginia,
Karen
We definitely both knew that one was special! I adore that picture and the darling boy in it!
Much love to all of you--here's to many more special pictures of our special times together.
