DP: Ghic Chic and Jonathon Wish You a Happy 2008
I wanted to thank everyone so much for helping 2007 become a year of new family, new chances and feelings of belonging.What started off as a scary year of uncertainity as we resided in a hospital upstate as a risky operation went awry, as thankful [...]
