HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!

I CANNOT believe I'm writing about Jackson's first birthday! It really doesn't seem like a year ago, at this time, he was still inside. It's amazing how someone so small can change your life so much. This has been a year filled with love, admiration, amazement, and a few challenges :) We wouldn't change ONE.THING. We love you, Jackson Thomas, more than you'll ever know!!

I'm so glad we've shared our journey with all of you. Here's a look back at the last year.
