Spring has sprung?

I hope it's really spring. I love the warm weather, and the kiddos love being outside!

We've had a busy week or two. Last week I was lucky to be part of an incredible adoption experience. A sweet birthmom, Alicia, who I worked with last year, came and placed her sweet son with the same family who adopted her daughter. Alicia and I really bonded, and I really love her. She is an amazing woman who did this for all the right reasons. I admire and respect her very much.
After a few false alarms, baby Elijah was born by c-section early Friday morning. He is healthy and doing well with his new family.
Mat's niece, Heather, got married last week and we had a great time spending time with Mat's family...Kari & Marci both came to SLC as well as some of their children, spouses and grandchildren. I can't believe I'm a great aunt, and it's even more surreal that Halle is playing with my niece's and nephew's children who are her same age, but it sure is fun.
The biggest news of the week is that
MEG IS EIGHT!!
Meg's birthday is March 12 and she is one great 8 yr old. She got an electric scooter and some new clothes, and had a big 4 tiered red velvet cake. She does not like being the center of attention, so we didn't get any real great photos of the magic moment when she reluctantly blew out the candles.
Seeing the scooter for the first time.... HURRAY!!








We LOVE our Meggity. She is an obedient, fun girl and we are so lucky to have her in our family! Stay tuned for baptism details...she wants to wait for her brother to get home. We'll let you know the date!
