We spent Thanksgiving in Houston this year and had a good time with family.
With the Gorman Girls
My dad has been volunteering with a hospice group, and Chloe and I went to visit some of his "old lady friends" while we were in Houston. Chloe was a hit and it was interesting to watch her stare so intently at the grandmothers when they held her. It looked as if she was peering deep into their souls.
Ms. NeldaMs. Nelda's husband was a pilot in the Air Force way back when and it was neat to share Air Force experiences with her. She has been to Osan, Korea and Misawa, Japan (two of the bases where we were stationed) years ago. She has bone cancer and was "not supposed to make it" to Thanksgiving. She has a strong faith in Christ and it was great to be able to discuss "life lessons" with her. She is 100% coherent and very witty and humorous. Chloe sat in her lap for a long time. We waited too long to get the camera out (it was nap time and she was growing impatient quickly at the end of our visit).

She is growing so fast. And love to see her walking. Her giggles are so contagious.
Your doing a wonderful job with her and I am sure her mom would be very proud.
Happy Holidays to you both!
You simply must bottle up that laughter and sell it on Ebay. :) That is the sweetest sound I have ever heard. Continued prayers from our AF family to yours! Be blessed!
My 6 month old Sara liked watching the videos of Chloe. She sure is a cutie! God bless!!
So happy for the updates, I had been checking to see how the two of you were doing. It's so kind of you to visit the nursing home.
Choe is so precious.
How sweet! I know when I take my children to the nursing home where my grandmother is it just puts a smile on all of their faces! :)
Continuing to pray for you and your amazing daughter!
Love and prayers!
Chloe is adorable!
Don't you wish we all had the same persistence and determination that little ones have when learning to walk?
Fall down, get back up. Fall down again, get back up again. Tumble and roll... get back up again! C'est la vie.
What a precious lady. You two are in my prayers, as always.
This is the first time I have left a comment! I have been following your blog since before Sara passed away. I must say I am so touched by your blog. I have enjoyed reading your posts every few weeks and I get excited when there is a new post. It's amazing how much Chloe has grown over the past year. Just watching the video of her starting to walk made me smile just knowing how proud Sara would be of her. I know she is so proud of little Chloe, and the amazing job you are doing raising sweet Chole!! I'm glad you continue to post on your blog! I'm glad you seem to be doing well! I hope you have a happy holidays!
She's getting so big! Thanks for letting us share in her growing up. My favorite photo is the one in the snowman pajamas--so cute!
We had our first Osan snow last week. Boy, the wind sure blows cold here!
Blessed Christmas!
