Dear Freddie and Renee, Thank you for having the family reunion take place at your beautiful home.... The children were absolutely perfect......I'm proud to see the little guys still take such joy in re-enacting the manger scene. Nanny, you have always been a wonderful teacher. I want to say a few things that make this night so special to me:
Like I said, the children (and boy are they multiplying quickly) are ALL precious...
Santa, you were a big hit....... I could hear all the little children whispering, "is he the real one?"
Katherine, you are absolutely stunning.... (Smart, beautiful, warm and kind) Congrats on your wedding (shhhh to Santa), it was a wonderful surprise to us all!
Laura and David, I am looking forward to your wedding in June.... You both light up the room with your smiles. Gemma and Layla are as beautiful as can be! Through Jesus's name, may your love grow stronger each and everyday.....
Patrick and Katie, I want you to know how proud of you I am and I hope and pray that Seattle will open many new and exciting opportunities for you both! I love you and you deserve it!
Freddie, remember what I said, you are a lovely man; kind, gracious, loving, smart, and a remarkable caretaker in that you never stop giving. In Gods eyes, "you have earned your wings!"
Jenna, Kristin, and Heather, you have always been the first to welcome me with your beautiful smiles as I'd walk in the door! I never thought the day would come where you would be all grown up!
To my husband, thanks for always standing by my side, I love you!
And last but not least, Happy 50th Anniversary Nanny and Poppy (12/23 actual date)...... Thank you for taking us to Bermuda this past summer!
I hope this reunion never fades: the kids love it!...... It's exactly what Jesus's birthday is all about! Friends and family of all ages coming together to say positive things to one another and sharing there love for Baby Jesus's birthday.
God Bless Your Family,
