Our Pumpkins


I have a pretty good feeling that Caleb would not enjoy being called a pumpkin anymore, at the ripe old age of eleven. Eight and three quarters years old Seth... I'm not sure about. He would probably protest mildly but not really mind. Madelyn, at five and three quarters years old would probably giggle at being called a pumpkin. Gwen will not understand pumpkin this year, at least not if it is spoken in English. But I am calling them pumpkins, today, for this season, because I like it and it is the seasonal thing to do. :-)

Children's Hope, our adoption agency, sends out a monthly newsletter via email to announce new referrals, local events, adoption information meetings, and babies that have come home to their forever famililes. In the most recent edition, Gwen, among others, was featured as a "pretty pumpkin" in the new referrals section. We , of course, know that she is the prettiest pumpkin in the group! Thought you'd enjoy seeing this feature... she is the one on the end with the biggest smile!
