There are only two ways to live your life.One is as though nothing is a miracle...... The other is as though everything is a miracle. ~Albert Einstein~
The girls had no idea what we were doing. When they saw other kids dressed up they just started to giggle. They thought it was so funny that all of these kids (themselves included) were walking around the neighbourhood in costumes!! They caught on very quickly to how it all works.....even though neither one of them are a big fan of candy they were intrigued by the whole thing. Sam kept trying to explain to them the drill and how it works. We went over to our church later where they had games and jumping things for them to jump on. They had a lot of fun. Their first Halloween was a success and next year I bet they'll like candy!!
They look great! Tinsae totally didn't get it either, I basically tricked him into dressing up but after the first house he was on board. He doesn't even like candy, he just liked the costumes and running around.
Our family consists of 6 kids and 2 adults.....Rod my husband works in the media and has his own business. Me.....well I have many titiles.....just to name a few, taxi driver, chef, finance manager, referee, business partner, computer analyist, school teacher and the list goes on, but the one I cherish most is mom. Taylor, our oldest son is in school heading towards being an engineer. Jesse, who just graduated from highschool in 2008 is heading towards Europe and the wide open fields. He has the travel bug and is leaving us for a bigger adventure. Kyle, who is our gentle soul is a budding photographer and is still in high school. Sam who is our miracle baby(there is a link to his blog) is a hockey player and is just having a great time being a kid. And then of course our girls......Our journey to adopt Denaye and Maya started in March 2006. Lots of paperwork and a lot of waiting. We have been blessed with the 2 of them who joined our family on September 6, 2007. There is a link that will give you our timeline if you are interested. If you have been with us since the beginning thanks so much for your support and your prayers...believe me I cherished it all. If you are just tuning in I hope you enjoy the ride.....it gets more interesting everyday!!! Blessings Debbie
