November 4th.....so much to celebrate!

This is a good day for several reasons......

A year ago today our hearts were given the true hope of parenthood. Milo's birthmother chose us worthy of her beautiful and perfect son. Our lives were forever changed and we are forever blessed.
My mom and dad took us to breakfast this morning in remembrance of this day last year......how our family celebrated and wept in appreciation and happiness......it was a wonderful day! :)

 
Today is also my sisters Brittni and Cory's birthday!!! :) Happy birthday to two of the most special people in my life. I love you both so much and hope that this year brings you so much happiness and joy.....new beginnings and wonderful memories! :) Enjoy your day!!!!!! :)

This truly is a magical day for your family. Your family (both the 3 of you and the entire group) is such a group to celebrate. new life is always amazing and Mr. Milo is even more so....

Happy day to you, Matt and Milo. I can imagine how surreal it is to look back one year and remember those feelings and then look at your little man.

Also, Happy Day to B and C! Love you both! :)

Enjoy this amazingly, wonderful day!

Wow...what a difference a year makes! It truly is amazing. You continue to be an inspiration to me everyday. Many blessings to you and your family!!

Congrats on your year!!!

I'm so happy that you're a family!

I was thinking about what you mentioned over on Melba's blog, about not standing out, and wishing you did. People probably look at you three and sigh. You and Matt are such attractive people, and Milo may not resemble you two, but he looks like he belongs with you. I'm willing to bet that people notice you and think to themselves, "What a beautiful family!"
