Incredibly Blessed

There were moments throughout my life that I wasn't sure if I would ever hear these words. I am incredibly blessed to have these 2 beautiful children. I am a mother through the Miracle of Adoption. These kiddos were placed in our home by 2 loving Birth Moms and I am lucky to have been CHOSEN to be their MOMMA! There are moments of being a mom that are extremely frustrating I'm not going to lie. It is the hardest job I have ever done or will ever do. But these kids bring more JOY, LOVE and LAUGHTER into our home and I thank Heavenly Father everyday for allowing me and trusting me to raise these most precious little ones.
