7 years

7 years ago today i gave birth to a 6lb. 7oz. baby boy at 6:03 in the morning. he was the tiniest most presious baby i had ever seen, and oh i loved him. it was a bittersweet day, and I'll never forget it.

thanks to seth's amazing parents i have had the opportunity to watch him grow and learn through pictures, emails, and visits. and what a fantastic boy he is growing up to be! i'm so proud!

some days (especially his birthday) are still hard for me, but not near as hard as they used to be. i'm just so happy that he has an amazing life and family that have given him everything that i couldn't, and i love that he's happy. so today, i'll be shedding some tears, some sad, but mostly happy tears because he is 7, happy, and healthy! happy birthday seth! i love you!

Such beautiful pictures. The one with you and Seth in the hospital says so much. He was a lucky boy to come to you and share his light with you before moving on to his adoptive home. I've never met Seth and I only met you when you were about 2, but I couldn't help but shed a tear or two myself today. God bless.

It's very random how I came to see your blog, but we have a Seth in our family, who was able to come in to our lives because a mother made a very unselfish decision. God bless you for what you did for Seth and his family.

P.s. Could your little Stone BE any cuter?
