6 Months

 Our beautiful angel baby is 6 months old!

Where has the time gone!?  It's hard to believe it's been half-a-year since we got the call that a baby girl was born in Georgia.  In the midst of a global pandemic, she has been such an uplifter to us all.  She's been the best thing!

We marvel at this girl all day.  She has 14 of us wrapped around her little finger - we are a very willing captive audience.  She brightens up our world  - every grin and giggle, every excited kick, every coo and look of recognition, every new trick or discovery, every milestone reached.  She is such a joy! 

She is so loved by so many.  

We are so thankful for her.

We love you Alarie!
