With Micah getting to come home just before Christmas, the entire family got to spend the holiday together. The family was in the living room on Christmas day exchanging gifts and taking turns holding the baby when the doorbell rang. *DING DONG* Everyone looked around the room at each other. It seemed like everyone was here. Who could be visiting? "Are you guys expecting anyone?" Stephanie asked her parents as her father got up to open the door.  Her mother shook her head with a frown.
