I am so, so, so happy for you and Tommy and your daughter is beautiful. Enjoy her. Take everything in, the time there goes by so fast. You're a MOMMY!!!! Congrats again.

What a blessing you all have received! In the pictures Jodi, you and Tommy and Rachel all look like you've been together for a long time! Very calm and serene...
We'll be so happy to meet Rachel in person. Congratulations and love and hugs.

Our Story

My photo
We are the proud parents of a beautiful little girl. I have not stopped smiling since the moment they placed her in my arms. We adopted her Sept 2008 and it's been nothing but wonderful! She is the best reason to open my eyes every day! Currently living in SW Florida. I've also become a MAJOR Twilight junkie, so now I'm told I'm a TWI-MOM & I LOVE it!
