A GREAT GIFT FROM THE PAST
When Dee was practicing medicine in Fresno
he once delivered a baby girl that was planned for adoption
which didn't work out.
We had a friend from Baker days, Linda Eardley
who was anxious to have a baby but unsuccessful.
Dee called, she said, I WANT HER!
and then the miracle happened.
I remember the day he handed the baby to Linda
in the hallway of the hospital.
Such JOY on all sides.
Every year since then, for some 35 years,
Linda has sent us a picture of little
JoDee
as she grew
Then came photos of her two little boys
Dean and Hyatt
year after year.
This year

we finally met the entire Childs family
JoDee, Dean, Hyatt, and Larvas
in this lovely Christmas card.
To quote Linda's letter
"I will never be able to thank you enough for that most
wonderful Christmas 'gift' you brought into our lives
35 years ago.
You will always be special to us."
A MIRACLE FOR ALL OF US AND AN ETERNAL BOND
