Eleven years ago on October 15th, Christopher Mark Murdock was born. Even though he was only with us for a short time we love him and feel so blessed he is a part of our family. We like to celebrate his birthday each year by giving each of the kids a present to open and by blowing out the candles on his birthday cake. We also try to do a service project for someone, but sadly it didn't happen this year, at least not on his birthday. (the service project) Mark and I feel that celebrating Christopher's birthday is a great way to remember him, to help the children realize he is a part of our Eternal family, and it also helps the day not seem quite as sad.
The Cake!

Tyler was excited to get the book "Brisingr" the third book in a series he enjoys!
Madison was thrilled with her new earrings and halloween socks!!!

I think that is awesome that you guys do that for Christopher's birthday. I am so glad that I got to name Christian after Christopher.
It is hard to believe that it has been 11 years isn't it. How exciting it will be to see him one day again. We love your family Cheree and had fun listening to Tyler piano recital.
