My little munchkin turned 1 yesterday! I can't even believe it. I am the luckiest person I know!
A year ago we had been packed and ready to go for two weeks before we finally got the call at 6:30am that our birth mother was in the hospital in labor. We frantically ran around tying up loose ends as we prepared to leave when we got another call - 12:23pm It's a girl!!!!!!!!!!!
We jumped up and down and cried and yelled and hugged and laughed!
Our flights were a series of cluster-beeps but we finally arrived in Ohio at 11:30pm. We were told we could not go directly to the hospital (and later found out that was misinformation and in fact they were all expecting us) so we fell asleep with huge grins on our faces.
The next day we met our baby girl! I know this is going to sound awfully cliche but it was like coming home. It was like finding a huge piece of my soul that had been lost. She is my miracle; my dream come true, and I will eternally be grateful the woman who made our little family possible.
My baby is 1 year old - life doesn't get any better than this. One is Love. One is Luck. One is Life Changing.
She just woke up...time for a little snuggle.
