Merry Christmas!!!

Well, what a wonderful Christmas morning we had this morning! Ty's first Christmas with us was so great. I don't think he quite understood why he got all these toys in one day, but hopefully he wont expect the same thing tomorrow!! We got him up at 6:30am and came out to the living room where Santa had brought some gifts. Then we did stockings which was fun. Then we spent most of the morning unwrapping and taking turns. Frank handed them out one at a time. I couldn't help but wonder what this Christmas would have been like with Ty in his orphanage. I wonder if they celebrate Christmas or if they put up a tree in the orphanage? It really brought us joy to watch him open all his presents. Also it was great to celebrate in our new house! We got moved in just in time to put up a tree and celebrate. I am getting to the point where I finally feel like I can breathe and settle in. We are so very thankful this year for so many things and makes us reflect on the real reason we celebrate Christmas.
