Chloe home 1 year on Easter!!!!!!!

Easter is very special to us this year. Chloe was placed in my arms forever 1 year ago this past Saturday. For those of you who remember what a extremely difficult journey we had bringing her home will understand that they are really no words to describe what this past year has meant to us.
I also understand now that some of God's greatest gifts are the ones we have to wait on. For those of you that are waiting please know that I am praying for you and it really will happen, it will seem like it is not, but it will!
God has blessed me with 4 amazing children, Kyleigh is 21 and married teaches high school math, Brent is 18 and will graduate this year and go off to college in the fall, Kaitlyn is 11 and will finish 5th grade, and Chloe was 2 on Valentines Day.
Thank you for letting me share my family with you!
