Amaris turns 12

Today is Amaris' 12th birthday! 12!!! Holy Guacamole! In some respects it seems like yesterday that she arrived, pale scared and sick. Tiny for her age and old beyonde her years. and in some respects it really does feel like nearly 10 years. I am so proud of the progress she has made over the years. Amaris you are growing into a beautiful young lady with a heart that is soft for the world around you. Never change that. Keep seeking ways to help others. I love you bunches!

I took this photo of the Birthday Girl just before her bus came this morning!
