Happy Birthday Noah

Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com

What can I say I am a week behind, but I did get it done:) Here is Noah's birthday montage. You will notice it does not start with a picture of him as a newborn because he joined our family when he was 4 years and 10 months old. As you know we turned to adoption to add to our family when infertility took the option of giving birth to any more children away from us. We were blessed with Sarah and Jacob as soon as they were born. When we felt it was time to adopt again we decided to adopt a child who was older, in foster care and hard to adopt. After many ups and downs and a long wait Noah joined our family. I chose the first song that plays in his montage because it talks about older children who need a forever home. Noah also has a diagnosis of Infantile Autism. I always said that I felt I could bond and care for any child as my own except for a child with Autism. The Lord works in mysterious ways and here I am the mother of a child with Autism. We are so thankful that Noah is a part of our eternal family. He says thank you for loving me every day through his beautiful smile. He is safe, happy, needed and loved. I hope you enjoy his birthday tribute. We love ya Little guy!!

The Three Phantoms

I love Broadway Musicals! When I was about 12 my foster sister, Jan took my sister and I to see the musical Annie at the Denver Theatre, it was my first musical. This is where my love for Musicals started. My favorite musical is Phantom of the Opera. Fort Worth Symphony Pops series had The Three Phantoms in concert this past weekend. So for my birthday Mike bought us tickets. It was a fantastic evening. The symphony played along as each Phantom sang songs from several Broadway hits and then they finished up with music from The Phantom of the Opera. I found another fan today. As I was doing some chores around the house I played my Phantom. Jacob smiled and danced around the house as the music played. Ashley and Sarah just rolled their eyes and said not this CD again.
