It was December 2016 on a quiet residential street. Houses were twinkling with Christmas lights and decorations.
For one inhabitant of Cactus Flower Drive, Fort Worth, Texas, it must have seemed a dream come true.
Because for Shanna Riddle Vandewege, it was her first Christmas as a mum.

Shanna and her husband Craig, who'd been married for two years after meeting at church, had recently moved to Fort Worth from Colorado, 800 miles away.
