Happy, Happy, Birthday Piper!

  Piper turned 3 today which was also the day that her birth mom made what had to be the hardest decision of her life.  While we will never know for sure what happened that day we do know that Piper was a tiny little thing and not in very good shape when she was found so I have to believe that her birth mom did what she had to do to save her daughter.  We will forever be greatful for her choice to leave Piper someplace she would be found & given the medical treatment she needed.  Without her brave decision we would not be the luckiest parents in the world to have her in our life.

Piper woke up this morning saying "Happy birfday Me!" When we asked her "is it _____'s birthday?" She would quickly giggle and say "no, my birfday".
