It is hard to believe that my boy is turning 18 May 29th, and graduating from High
school June 4th. It seems like yesterday when I recieved the call to pick him up. It was May 30, 1991 , I was getting ready for my evening shift at St marks hospital and Childrens Aid society called, the social worker Melba said "your baby is here, It's a boy come and get him" I just totally freaked out and told her I could not get off work. She laughed then calmed me down and saying "what would they do if you were in labor now call work and then layne and let me know how soon you can get here". I called Layne at work and then My parents and brother's. The agency is in Ogden , an hour drive from Salt lake, Layne and I did not speak a word until we arrived both in a happy "is this a dream" shock. One look at that baby and I knew it was meant to be, he was so tiny and I held him tight afraid they would want him back. We named him Christian Hardy After his Grandpa Hardy who he shares a birthday with, and after my grandpa his great Grandpa Chris.
He was greated by Grandparents George and Ann, Uncle Twain & Aunt Kathy and the cousins Sara, Brynn, Chelsea and Trey. The family brought diapers and all the things we needed for our Newborn son. It was one of my happiest moments. I thank God and his Birth Mother for this gift of life and allowing him to share his life with us.
We love you Chris!
