Today marks two years of being a mommy of three!

Look at those adorable first photos the social worker took – they were so little!

I receive sweet comments all the time from people commending me on how I “saved” them and how blessed they are to have been adopted. However those three children saved me and gave me the joy of life – they’re my biggest blessing. We saved each other  

Families come in a shapes. It’s all about loving and support one another throughout this journey called life. I loved each of them the day I first met them.

Makayla Marie came first on July 6th, 2012. 2.5 years old and a petite little angel. I was her mom from day one.

Jonathan William got to come home on July 12th, 2012. A lively little 5 year old boy who just wanted love and attention.

Amanda Renae made the decision to complete our new family and join her siblings two years ago today, August 8th, 2012. At age 10, she had been through far more than many adults have experienced. It was quite a process earning her trust and it took about a year for her to embrace me as her mother for which I’m eternally grateful.

I love my children so much and thank you for giving me the gift of motherhood! Happy 2nd Gotcha Day!
