Saw what Santa brought.

Hayden's First Birthday

Today was my sweet little Hayden’s birthday. I love and miss my little boy so much. I wasn’t sure how today would go, and although there were a lot of tears, there were also a lot of smiles. Hayden is a special part of our family, and we feel very lucky and honored to have him in our lives. I am grateful for the knowledge that I have of eternal families. I know that our family will be together forever.

Happy Birthday Hayden. We love and miss you.
