We knew you wouldn't be home to celebrate Christmas with us this year, but we hope you still had a wonderful day with your foster family. Not sure how you celebrated, but we sent a care package that hopefully you received earlier this month if you went in for a check-up. We do know that you've had snow in Korea, so maybe you went sledding, built a snowman, or just stayed inside nice and snuggle warm. We didn't get much snow over here, just a light dusting so not much outdoor fun had here.
Your Daddy worked Christmas Eve and Christmas Day while I went up to your grandparent's house to celebrate Christmas Eve with Grandpa Schubert's family and then had Christmas Day with your Aunt Katie. We were excited to find that Santa stopped by to leave some very special gifts for you in your stocking including a magical key. Next year, we'll place the key out for Santa so he can come in to leave your gifts under the tree. And of course we'll also put out some milk and cookies to thank him for stopping by.
Though you weren't physically here, we still celebrated with you in spirit both on Christmas Day and last weekend with Grammy and Pops.
There is so much love for you in this family, and we can't wait till you're here next year to celebrate with us!
Love Mommy

I managed not to cry...until you signed off. Oh, he's such a lucky, lucky boy!
ReplyDeleteJust got home from searching out "special" paper for next year's gifts...can't have Benjamin questioning why Santa uses the same paper as Grandma:)
