One year ago today, I pushed and pushed for 15 minutes and I watched as Stella Ann Stauffer entered this world.
One year ago today, I held an angel to my chest and watched intently as she looked into my soul.
One year ago today, I saw the world in my baby's eyes.
One year ago today, I met a woman that was put on this earth with purpose and determination.
One year ago today, a precious life completed our family and we have never been the same.Stella gave us her name. Stella is a Stella if we have ever met a Stella!
Stella needs to be heard. Stella is a fighter. Stella is strong.
Today our lives are different, with her birth we grew out of our comfortable box and really began to live. Through this transition that she brought with her, we were never really comfortable and that is because we were changing. Stella showed us where we were lost and taught us that we could be found. She has pushed the START button on our lives and we are off, we are off and away. Stella is a Saint and we love her with every last inch of our being. Happy Birthday, my Baby Bear!!! YOU are my muse.
