I've been wanting to write this post for a while but obviously time has been ... well rather limited but I wouldn't change it for the world.
I finally feel like I am the person who God created me to be. Ever since Faith came into our lives its like something clicked. I just completely fell into my own as a mother and a wife. Do I have it all figured out? Of course not. I don't have a hot cooked meal every night when my husband gets home, nor is the bed always made, or Faith always perfectly dressed with a pretty dress and poofy bow on her head, but being a mother and a wife is who I was meant to be.
My whole life I dreamed of being a mother. Of holding a sweet baby in my arms and knowing she was mine. A product of my husband and I, rather biologically or not. And now that I am there my whole life just seems to have taken on thee incredible roll I had been waiting my whole life for.
Being a wife to Greg is more than my heart could have ever dreamed for myself. He's the most incredible man and I know there is no one else in the whole world out there that would love me the way he does. Just thinking about all he does for me and Faith. The way he loves us, provides for us, and cares for us is more than my heart could have ever fathomed I would have in a husband.
And being a mother to my little Faith is...well...its indescribable. Again its more than my heart could have ever hoped for.
I'm finally becoming the me God created me to be. And it's the best feeling in the world.

Love your "Family of 3" pic. I know you've waited such a long time for it! You've been given an incredible gift!!!
I am so happy for you guys. I think you may find, as I did after Isaac, that adoption itself made me complete. I truly felt like I didn't need any other child but Isaac. Isn't adoption THE BEST!?!?!
I feel very much the same since our son came along, and I couldn't have said this better myself!
I'm so happy for you, and so excited to see you blossom as the awesome mommy you've always been!
