In 2011, amidst all the madness, we welcomed a baby boy. His name is Isaac and he is beautiful and amazing! I can't wait to watch them grow together and to tell Isaac how lucky he is to have such a special big sis...........maybe he already knows.

Happy New Year!
2011 has been filled with so many life changing lessons, I don't even know where to start. Over the course of last year an illusive truth has slowly been revealed to us................... IT IS O.K...... Emma is o.k...... we will survive.............. maybe even thrive. It has taken a lot for us to finally begin to realize this and there are still many days when its hard to see it as the truth. The past year has been filled with nights of worry blurring into days of endless responsibility. There have been many tears held back and just as many cried silently into the pillow at night. I am no longer the carefree, young woman that I once was and that's o.k. Emma has transformed me into a different person, I like to think, a stronger person......maybe even a deeper person. If I didn't know better I would say that she is strategically molding me into the woman that it will take to be her momma.

In 2012, I hope that Emma finds her world to be beautiful, I hope that she continues to smile at everything and anything, I hope that she starts to feel more comfortable in her special little body. I hope that she thinks life is fun and that she never stops practicing her belly laugh. Most of all I hope that both Emma and Isaac know that they are loved on a deeper level than I ever knew possible.

Becky, first of all Holland is such a wonderful place to be. So many times I wanted to say to you all the things that are conveyed in Welcome To Holland and could not find the words. It is so perfectly worded, couldn't have said it better.
Just so you know, 28 years later, my special person still teaches me soo many things, daily. He smiles and has such a great attitude. His brothers both know the blessing that has been bestowed on us all in Daniel. He has taught us all what really matters in this life.
Without him, I might not be the person I am, as well as his brothers.
Knowing what I know now, I would have never traded Italy for Holland, and am grateful that God has chosen this for me.
Gosh becky, your blog always makes me teary eyed, over joyed&thankful for everything i have! Your an amazing person, words cannot describe! Thank you for keeping us up to date with everything! Love you <3
