Some of you may know of the journey it took to bring Anabelle to our family.
A super long story made short...
My wonderful, beautiful sister-in-law Stacie (my husbands brothers wife) was diagnosed in 2004 with CML--a blood disease and form of Leukemia. She was told that it could cause further life threatening problems with her medication if she attempted pregnancy. SO, without hesitation, I asked she and her husband if they would like my husband and I to carry their biological child for them. They jumped at the offer--and a year, IVF, and pregnancy later--here was Anabelle!
So, you see, Anabelle really is an angel! An angel sent to bring such joy to our entire family!
Happy 1st birthday precious girl!

Also, I want to let you all know about another angel. This sweet girl has been sent back to heaven recently after fighting a good fight with a long illness.
Her name is Brianna.
You can read about Brianna and her family here.
