One year ago today our beautiful nieces, Reese and Elle, officially joined our family! Every child is a miracle, but Reese and Elle have a very special story and we are so incredibly blessed to be celebrating their first birthday as happy and healthy little girls! Because of a team of amazingly talented doctors, lots and lots of prayers from people all over the world, and God's good grace, the girls are here today against all odds. My sister, Renee, put together this beautiful video in honor of the girls' first birthday, and it gives me chills every time I watch it. Reese and Elle, we love you so very much and we thank God every day for the miracles that you are!
We had the opportunity to celebrate their birthday yesterday evening with good family and friends. Renee and Tim know how to throw a good party :) :)
