Eight years ago, today, my life changed forever. I knew, the moment I held that sweet little girl in my arms that nothing would ever be the same again.
Looking back on that day, I remember the feeling of complete joy when I looked up at my new husband holding our daughter for the very first time.
I still have the silly denim baseball hats my mom brought us that said "New Mom" and "New Dad".
When we brought our little baby girl home, I remember thinking "Now what? What am I supposed to do with this baby?". I was the first of my friends to have a baby and even though I knew how to make a bottle, change a diaper, and cuddle the little one, I had NO idea what to do.
Last year was tough for her; but what a champ she is. Never did she really complain and she was such a good helper when her daddy needed us. And the day her baby brother was born, my little girl turned into the best big sister I have ever seen --- she and that baby boy have such an incredible bond and it makes me smile just thinking about it.

Love you Grace Marie.
