One Year Ago Today


One year ago today, I met my beautiful, precious daughter for the first time in person. She was so small and helpless. I can't believe it has been a year. That seems like an eternity ago and yet just like yesterday. I got such a small taste of what it was going to be like to be a mother those 4 days that we had together. It is so much better than I ever could have imagined. I never knew that such a tiny person could have brought so much joy and peace into my life. I can't imagine my life without her as a part of it.
Here are a few pictures from last year and then a few that we took this morning at the park. The weather is a little chillier this year than last year.

The first moment I held Evvy.


First bottle.



In hotel lobby.



What a precious face.


Snuggled in her quilt from mami (this is now her favorite quilt)

It sure is cold out here mom.

Bye, bye mami.
OK, I'll come back.
This is so much fun!
These leaves are crunchy.
