pn03-rpbestshot.jpgPictured are Olivia (oldest), Adriana (middle daughter) and Tanner (Baby) I am their mother, Jill . Joan is my mother and her name is Joan Miller. My mother does not have the computer capability to send this, so this is why I am involved.
In this day of "throw-away" newborns, I would like to introduce two beautiful little girls who have been "officially" adopted and have joined our family. Olivia, 3 and Adriana, 13 months. Adriana was the first "safe surrender" baby born in Los Angeles Country in 2009. They have joined our family of three adult children and their mates and six other grandchildren. They are a joy to all of us and we relish our time with them. Number eight grandson, Tanner, joined our family nine months and one day after Adriana's birth. Our family is now complete!
I want to thank the mothers of these two beautiful girls for not aborting them and for letting them go because they were unable to care for them. I cannot imagine the pain these women must have felt in giving up these beautiful girls. You can be assured that these children will be raised by loving parents, grandparents and lots of uncles, aunts and cousins. All of our children and grandchildren are "gifts from God".

Love,
Grandma Joan Miller
