Meeting Grandma Trenholm for the first time!
This is your Auntie Arynne - she went to Bunco one night and met a girl who's sister works for the adoption agency. She said that they could help Tony and I. Because Arynne went to Bunco one night - you are here in our lives! We love you Arynne!!!!
Grandma and Auntie Glitz!


Dear Max,
Saturday, December 13, 2008
Today is the first of many celebrations marking your arrival. Grandma, Auntie Glitz (Sherlene), Teri and Julie threw you an amazing party. The food was so good and over 75 relatives and friends came to meet you. You were so good – you just slept in either your moms, dads, or Grandma’s arms. It’s a good thing that you love to be held! Cause people sure love holding you! The party went from 11 am until 7:30 pm. It was a long day – but we had one more very special thing to do. Go and meet your Grandma Trenholm. The moment we took you into the room – she was overwhelmed. We laid you in the bed with Grandma and she just snuggled with you and the two of your souls spoke. She just took everything about you in. Checked out your fingers, toes, nose, eyes, ears she wanted to know everything about you! She loves you so much and told us all the hopes and dreams she has for you. She prays that you will gain a testimony of the Lord, Jesus Christ. She wants you to know that she has such a strong testimony. She is the first in her family to join the church and because of her bravery to join to church she has given you the opportunity to know the truth. She prays that you will never take this for granted and grow into a worthy, bright, and spiritual young man.
Your dad and I have dreamed of this day - and with your Grandma Trenholm getting older and sicker – we were so glad that you arrived in time to meet her. We don’t know how much longer she will be with us in this life – but we know that she loves you and she will always be a special person in your life. She has left an amazing legacy for you to learn from. We love you!
