Merry Christmas! This evening John, Lindy and Anya started their very own blog. Here it is!We've had a wonderful and exciting weekend as our family grew by 50%! Any sales company would be exceedingly glad with growth at that level, but our joy goes far beyond that!
At 5:05 am on December 22, 2006, little Anya Jozette Salmon entered the world as a healthy 6 pound 11 ounce baby girl. It was a special little Christmas blessing from our Heavenly Father... and thus the title of our blog is Blogaslovenia, which means "blessing" in Russian, for that's what our family received, just in time for Christmas. (Yes... The Russian language uses the Cyrillic alphabet and therefore Blogaslovenia is a phonetic transcription.)
Just a few hours ago we brought Anya home and showed her her new home. She said she loves it! ;)
More pictures will follow as we celebrate Christmas with Anya tomorrow, but for now here are some of the early pictures taken at the hospital. We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and hope you have reflected on the "blessings" of the birth and life of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
