One Year Ago Today

Faith was placed in my arms forever. What a glorious day. I was so filled with mixed emotions. Here I was overjoyed to finally have my daughter in my arms forever, yet completely floored by how delayed she was. I just didn't know what to make of anything. I can not believe it's been a year. Faith has grown and thrived so much in this last year. She is my Guatemalan Princess and I love her so much and feel so blessed to have her. Check out the Then and Now pics.

    I can't believe how close our timelines were. We were in Guatamala at the same time as you last year. I miss those days!
    Faith has grown into the most beautiful toddler. It obvious what an incredible mother/daughter relationship you have. I'm so blessed to watch her grow up!
