I honestly have never seen so many miracles work more in my entire lifetime, than I have this last year.
These two little angels are some of the biggest blessings. They are fighters and survivors since Day 1. As a family, there have been so many ups, downs and loop de loops, we have become so much stronger and so much closer together. These girls have taught Nate and I so much about being parents, and how each other and our family’s support is everything. We are so indebted to our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ for trusting us with these little girls. I will never understand their reasoning but I will never question their judgement. We have never been so grateful to be the parents of these beautiful Children of God. (Yes, all three!)
All that being said, with how exhausting and stressful this last year has been, we wouldn’t have changed a thing. Lexie and Jordie have been the PERFECT addition to our little family! They have so much s***k and sass! It’s been so exciting to see their little personalities develop and grow. It’s been so fun to see Sawyer be a big brother! He loves these two girls so much!
I can’t believe you babies are ONE!!
Happy 1st Birthday my loves!! We are so excited to see what this next year will bring. And so anxious to see your growth and progression in these coming months! We love you more than you will ever know!! Happy Birthday Lexie Kay! Happy Birthday Jordie May! ♥️♥️💕
