I am lounging in our cabin near Jackson Hole Wyoming, under a sky of falling snow on Spring Break.
French toast has been all made and served up, cabin cleaned, and the kids are frolicking in the snow. Five feet of snow is currently being plowed out of our driveways by hubster and grandpa in the tractors. They may call this work, I call it big boy toys.
I am off to play but had a quick, unbelievable letter to share for Handsome’s birth mommy. I hear there is another to cone, but this gives a bit to digest for today:
Jordan my Love,
I want to tell you something, well I hope that you love me no matter what. I will always love you no matter what. I want you to know that I placed you with this family that you are with right now. I love you with all my heart, and that you mean lots to me. I placed you because I had some trouble with your daddy. When you are older I will explain it better to you, but this family has done so good with you that I am amazed. I miss you very much more then you will ever know, but you deserved better, a home and a family that will take better care of you I also want to tell you that when you were here in mommy’s tummy you were in there with a sister I know in my heart she looked just like you and that is a cutie. I know that she would of been a good kid just like you. I lost her during the duration of my pregnancy but the important thing is that I did not loose you!!!!! I love you both with all of my heart. I named her Jessica Lynn ………….but we will have to talk later about those things when you are older and you understand better. I love you Jordan no matter what I hope that you work hard for what you want out of life never give up!!!!! Always be a fighter!!!!!!!
Love your mamma
SEE!!! I about died, and now our family tells Handsome there is a guardian angel sweetheart with big brown eyes and a huge smile watching over him…
Have a beautiful day!

What a sweet letter!
this made me cry. how generous of you to share this letter with not only your readers, but with handsome. there are adoptive parents out there who would not want their children to know of their birth parents, and i love that handsome will know how very much he is loved by all who have known him. i love that he has a guardian angel. so bittersweet.
Tears! I got a sudden panic attack at work cause I was missing you soo much. I almost called then I figured I'd get a dose real quick from your blog since I cant talk on the phone for 2 hrs at work;-) But how amazing is it that in a way Heavenly Father provided Jordan a lil twin sister here on earth through Halle?! I love you guys so much and I wish I could kiss that lil sweet jordan on the cheek and squeeze him, what a perfect addition to our family! Miss you guys a zillion times over, give everyone a hug & I wish I was able to sneek away and lay around in the snowflakes with you up at the cabin! And for your entertainment…I had a weird Michael Jackson Dream last night Captain E.O style where he was sneaking around and could turn himself into a bouncy ball to sneak past "the bad guys/jello-ish monsters". Yep these are the days of my life.
