Happy birthday miss Olivia!
looking back such a short time. But I could've held her forever. After she was born, I didn't want to pass her around. I wanted to look at her and admire her cute little face and see what traits of mine that she had. Listen to all these new sounds of a baby cries and sighs. I wanted to memorize her little schedule even though I only held her for two days. The best two days of my life with this little spirit. How could I ever forget? She changed me for the better and is my biggest inspiration. Without her, I wouldn't be who I am. A much stronger, better person. I am for her and I hope to make her proud someday.
my birthdaughter. Quoting what one of your aunts said tonight, you have to be one special spirit to have so many people love you.
You're going to be the most beautiful flower girl tomorrow!

One year
Just like last year, I won't be getting a lot of sleep tonight. But instead of being up with a baby all night. It's because I'm getting married in less than 24 hours. Such a change from last year but a good one. Tayler is the love of my life and I can't wait to marry him :) :) I've been waiting for this for a good 7 months. I'll see y'all when I get back. I may possibly have one post while I'm on the honeymoon. Much needed vacay.
Hi,I don't know if you remember me commenting a while ago, just wanted to send massive congratulations to you on your wedding day =D i know i don't know you, but having found your blog by chance, it's been a really inspiring read.
ReplyDeleteOlivia is gorgeous and the fact that Tayler has come along just goes to show that things happen for a reason and God will make sure everything comes out just fine. you deserve every happiness, good luck!
Happy Birthday to your Miss Olivia!! She's sooo cute!

You are absolutely AMAZING!! That post summed up for me the beauty of adoption and that it truly is not about "giving up" it is about "giving more"...Olivia is such a lucky little girl to have so many people love her and what a great example you are and will continue to be for her! I wish you the very best today, enjoy the day, take in every moment and take time for you!! Have a great honeymoon!!
