Get your tissues :)
The best gift that I ever got
Didn't really weigh a lot.
It didn't have a ribbon 'round,
And it sometimes made an awful sound.
The best of all it seems to me,
It wasn't 'neath the Christmas tree.
And yet, I guess I'd have to say,
That it made all the other presents twice as gay.
The best gift that I've ever known,
I'd always wanted most to own.
Yet in my dreams of sugar and spice,
I never thought it could be so nice.
The best gift that I'll ever get
Was sometimes dry and sometimes wet,
Was usually pink, but oftentimes red
As it lay so innocently in its bed.
The best gift of the year to me,
The one I hold most dear to me,
The gift that simply drove me wild,
Was a tiny, newborn child.
Little Emma has filled our home with so much love! She is a month old today, I can't believe it, we've only had her home for a few days, and they have made our Christmas magical. It is so much fun having two girls, they are both so sweet. I can't imagine my life with out them. Our family feels much more complete now, my heart is at peace.Labels: adoption
I have a feeling Lilly is going to teach Emma a lot :) Lilly lets us know when Emma cries and loves to help change and feed her. Last night she came out of her bedroom to just check on Emma, what a sweetie pie.


Emma came 6 weeks early, so she will be staying in the NICU for awhile. She is breathing on her own and we even got to hear her cry a little while we were with her today, she is so sweet and we are very excited to have her join our family.

Our family of four! 

We are so excited to grow our family and know that someone is missing. We've been hoping for a second child for a few years now and are asking for help from our family and friends to share our story and desire to adopt again. Thank you to everyone that passed our last profile cards out to people. Mike, Lilly and I would love to have one more adoption miracle come into our lives and we need your help.
Feel free to take a peak, also comment here and let me know what you think, or if you feel like we need to add more. It is so hard trying to decide what to include in the profile, so if there is something about Lilly, Mike or I that you really love and you think would stand out as an important thing that is missing let me know and I will add it.
