My Three Greatest Gifts...

February 1, 2008
On days like today I remember my three greatests gifts in life. In chronological order they are:
The day I married the love of my life...
The day my baby boy was born...
against all odds...
PERFECTLY HEALTHY!

What a proud Papa :o)

And last, but definitely not least, on this day 2 years ago my baby girl officially became MY BABY GIRL forever and ever. The following post shows how the events unfolded. From her birthday and rough first few days, to the day I first held her and she last saw her parents, to meeting Max and then, of course her Papa (who was in Iraq, AGAIN) to a few months later when we signed the papers and she officially became ours! It's a wonderful life and I'm so very lucky to call it my own. I love you all!!!

Thanks for sharing. The pictures of Max and Maggie as wee ones almost made me cry. Time slips by so quickly. Looks like you are all doing well. Won't be too long until Columbia, right? Looks like we're headed to VA, not nearly as exciting!

warmly,
