I first met your parents about 7 years ago, when they were in love, always hand in hand, beaming with joy, and expecting their first baby! They started attending Abundant Life Christian Fellowship, and joined our home group in Los Altos. They were so excited about becoming parents, and had a list of names they were deciding on..."Dominic" was one. When you were born, Justin, your Mom had a hard time deciding to go back to work. She became a Discovery Toys consultant instead, so that she could be home with you. I attended her first Discovery Toys party at your house...
I also remember the day I found out about you, Meredith. It was right after a baby shower your Mom and I threw for Auntie Cher at Lisa's Tea Treasures in Santana Rowe. The day before, we potted many star jasmine party favors on your dining room table together, and your Mom said nothing. After the shower, I bumped into your Mom coming out of the maternity boutique, Japanese Weekend. That look on her face said it all. We giddily scurried across the street together and relished the good news over some slushy drinks from Fantasia...
