Your mom told me about the video today at lunch….. how sweet. I am so glad that God has answered your prayer for children to grace your life. God Bless you and your family, this Christmas and always. Love, Sara
Dear Chris, Jen and family,
We loved the memories you are making! Our hearts are full of joy that your Christmas wish came true.
Love,
Jerry and Nancy
I was moved to happy tears while watching this video! What a blessing you are to these beautiful girls! My husband and I adopted a little boy from foster care, and it was wonderful seeing part of your story, woven with the same thread as ours… Merry Christmas!!!
I LOVE the hairbow dances! I hope they do that every day
I don’t even have words to describe how moved I am by this video and what you’ve don’t for these beautiful girls… I’ve heard how special you are from MK Cuthbertson and the Price’s (I am their nanny).. May you have a very Merry Christmas and many, many more to come with your wonderful, precious family!
so beautiful. what a blessed family! merry christmas!
Why did this video make me want to run out and buy some striped tights and red boots. I LOVE the end with the girls dancing. I bawled my eyes out!
Thank you for the sweet Christmas gift that you gave me,
with this wonderful video!!! Merry Christmas!
Oh’ My’ am I lame for getting chocked up over this??? NAH’ I am a mom too. This video is just precious and so enchanting. Its exactly why I/we have children/families. To make these kinds of memories. Thanks you for sharing this video. I loved every minute of it. winks, jen
This is just beautiful. <3
Such special times. My youngest is a teenager. My oldest is now married, with a child of his own. Watching my grandchild on his knees, looking up at the tree with wonder, is bringing back those special memories. Just as this video did.
LOVE IT! So sweet.

So very sweet. Thank you for sharing your special day. All of mine are teenagers now.Cherish every moment they grow so fast. We still have a great time picking out our tree and enjoying all the festivities. God Bless and Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family
where’s the kleenex???? Oh my, this is so precious. My girls are 17 and 20… We miss those days of sweet innocence and wonder. Do keep this moment in your heart forever as there is nothing that anything material can replace! We didn’t have the opportunity to create and share like this a decade ago, but now, you can do so many amazing things on the web… seriously, I can’t see… off to find the tissue!
Bless your family and treasure it all!!!!
Merry Christmas to you all!
That was absolutely beautiful.
Oh my stars! They are the cutest ever! Thanks for sharing these precious moments with your adorable family. God bless!

Absolutely precious. So happy for you and your family.

“This is the best day ever!” Yes, it is little one, yes it is. Jen, my heart is bursting with joy and love for you and your new little family. I’m so happy for you it brings tears to my eyes. Bless you all.
Well, now I’m bawling! Love it. We have 3 kids and we’re adopting from Ethiopia. This made me ache for our little one to be home! Thank you for sharing. Your girls are beautiful!
The first comment made me cry, ‘ it just hit me…’. So so cool. Beautiful video! We are adopting right now …it is beautifully messy…;). So fun. Love your blog.
It just hit me. I want to adopt. You and your husband are such an inspiration and your family of four is absolutely wonderful. Happy holidays, and enjoy every second of them!

made me cry. not gonna lie.
So, so precious. You are very blessed.
So sweet! Those girls are so very lucky to have found you!
My husband have adopted two little boys from foster care and will adopt a little girl in the next few weeks. They are 6, 5 and 4….and I know the feeling you describe about the day you met the girls and took them home. The best thing to hear is that I am the ‘best mom ever’ – because my kids have something to compare me to. Congratulations and best wishes to you, your husband, and the two little girls.
Thanks for the good cry. Tears of happiness and joy. Happy Holiday’s Hunt family of 4!
