Monday, December 18

You may remember this photo from our family Christmas on Sunday, December 3 – our family’s charity choice – in place of exchanging gifts this year.

Jeff and Chris where hoping to deliver the items, but their schedule was a bit hectic and busy, so they asked if we could do it. We happily agreed and packed the items in our trusty RAV4.

The clinic and pregnancy services are across the street from each other.

They were very appreciative of our gifts to them and graciously showed us the area where parents can choose items for their babies and young children. It was rewarding to be there.
