Double Digits




It's hard for me to believe that my baby girl is 10 years old today. I remember everything about that day and all the emotions that it brought. In essence it's what made me a grown-up. The moment she took her first breath was really the first moment my life was no longer about me. Such unimaginable joy to finally meet this person that had been growing inside me. A bond that would link Stewart and I together like no other. So aptly named Macie after my great-grandmother meaning "a pearl" and Ann after my mom meaning "gracious." Our lives were forever changed that cold morning in January, for not only was a child born but so was a family. Ours.
