A year ago today...

As I sit here trying to create the most perfect and well worded paragraph to describe the impact a year ago today had on our lives, I am stumped for where to begin. There are not enough paragraphs to fit on this blog that could shed a glimpse of what we feel for our little Aden. The kind of love we've found as parents can only be explained as a glimmer of what God must feel for us. The life of a child is nothing short of a blessing that God has given to us to have an understanding, if possible, of the depth and breadth of His eternal love for us and desire to be loved in return. We feel thankful for that blessing every day we wake up and hold our little boy in our arms. He brings joy, laughter, peace, expectation and so many things that are not easily explained. We are thankful for amazing parents in our own lives who have loved us beyond words and now do the same for their grandchild. To say our lives were changed by 'a year ago today' would be less than adequate. We will never be the same.
Happy Birthday sweet Aden! We love you so!
