Counting Down.... 3....2....1 You're almost one!!!

We can't believe it! We just can't believe it! Our little pumpkin will be 1 year old in just two more days. In our eyes, she is still that precious little child who was so helpless and new to this world. But, 52 weeks later, we know that is not the case... Ellena is so amazing these days - walking around the house, eating her own apples (I was a bit concerned, but she seemed quite pleased with the situation). She is developing her indepence more and more every day (I wonder where on earth she gets that from??? Mom - is this what you mean when you talk about paybacks?). Overall, we just gush with love and gratitude for the gift God has given us. To spend just a few minutes with her is like getting a glimpse of God's plan. I am just so overjoyed to celebrate her first year of life, I had to write this post to share my feelings with all of you! Love to you all... S
