This evening we got our Son (Chase Il-Wu Gardocki). Originally Amy only wanted a small gathering to go with us to the airport when we picked up Chase. However, since we Gardocki’s do things big, we ultimately decided to allow anyone who wanted to make the trip to Newark International airport to attend. We were overwhelmed with the outcome as over 20 of our friends and family made the 2 hour drive to meet Chase at 10:00 pm.
When we arrived at the airport, we waited at gates A10-A18 where we met the greeter, Barbara Hurte. After signing paperwork, she explained the procedure and the only thing left to do was to wait for Chase’s flight to arrive.
Once Chase’s flight landed, Jay and Amy positioned themselves to view down the corridor where the escort would be seen with Chase.
Finally Chase was seen and we got to hold our son for the first time.
Passerby’s must have thought that the paparazzi were following a superstar as the flashes from all of the cameras were going off everywhere. Once the initial excitement dwindled, we made sure to get some photos with the escort and also the greeter before they left the airport.
At one point, our friend Shann got a hold of the video camera.
Since we want to bring Chase up in a Christian home, we knew that is was important to thank God for Chase's arrival in our life. Before we left, we gathered everyone together and lifted Chase up in prayer.
Numerous friends and family were with us at the airport. We also know that many others wanted to come, but could not. We want to thank everyone for being such loving friends and family and we cannot wait to have you meet Chase and be a part of his life.
