Thomas' Birthday.

Dear Thomas,

This Sunday you will be four years old. As soon as I got that first picture of you I posted it on the board in my classroom.Everyday my students would ask about you, and I would have to say I didn't know. How agonizing that was! We had no idea at the time it would be 10 long months before your parenst brought you home from Guatemala, and it was even longer before I got to hold you. You have enriched our lives with your laughter, energy, curiousity, love and joyousness.

I thank God everyday for you, your precious sister and your wonderful parents.

Happy Birthday, dear Tom.

Love, Nana
