Heart Our first Family Day!

It was one year ago today that Daniel was placed in our arms forever! It was the best Valentines present in the whole world! Pics are on our blog (address in my siggy).

Words cannot express how grateful I am to have had him home for the past year. My thoughts and prayers are with those of you who are still struggling to bring your kids home.
