One year ago today, my grandmother passed away peacefully. We miss you dearly Grandma.
One year ago today, I stumbled across Reece's Rainbow's Angel Tree fundraiser and decided to make a donation in my Grandma's memory.
One year ago today, I caught a glimpse of a little baby girl named Sofia (2) who had Down syndrome and a face that permanently touched my heart.
One year ago today, a seed was planted.
One year LATER, we are the Sanchez Six and we can't imagine life without our daughter. She completes us! What a difference a year makes.
what a beautiful family!!! xx

ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing journey over this past year! It has been wonderful to share it with you. As Susan said, you did your Grandma proud. Many lives have been changed forever because of what happened last Dec 13. Most importantly, a life has been saved and Sofia is thriving and knows love! Thank you for sharing your story and impacting so many hearts, including mine!
ReplyDeleteThe Sanchez Six---I like that! The pictures are great too! I first e-mailed Andrea on Christmas Day (of all things) inquiring about some of the cuties on RR so our timelines are very similar. Merry Christmas to all of you!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful words and photos! Perfect family!
