Well on this Sentimental Sunday we are celebrating a very special day-our daughter’s birth day. The last two years have been filled with so much joy. I can’t imagine our life or our family without her. There is never a dull day with our sassy pants and for that, I am so grateful. I can’t believe how grown up she is and even more, how grown up she thinks she is. She is already riding her scooter around the cul de sac and tries to repeat everything we say. I love when she says, “Thank you Mommy” because right after she says, “Welcome Baby”. She always says, “Love you Mommy” when she goes down for her naps or night night and is obsessed with puppies…and all other animals. I can’t wait to see what the next two years will bring with our sweet bee.
Each day I think about her birth parents and the happiness they placed into our lives. While I thought our family was complete with our boys, now seeing them all together I know without a shadow of a doubt that she was always meant to be their sister. My family feels complete and that is an amazing feeling. The icing on top of the cake is all of the family and friends we have gained because of adoption.
You can read more about her actual birth day and see more pictures here 😀
So grateful today and each day to have been chosen by Lauren and Matt to be this sweet girl’s mommy. Not a day goes by that their loving sacrifice is not lost on me.
Is she 2 already? Wow! Happy Birthday sweet girl!
Happy birthday Alayna.
She is two tomorrow 😀 We just celebrated it today and will do more tomorrow too. I can’t believe she is two either.
