Happy 1st Gotcha Day!!!

What a difference a year makes!! We are so thrilled to be celebrating Maeve's one year anniversary with our family. We feel like she has been here forever. I guess that is why they call it "forever family." Maeve has come so far in the past year. It is hard to believe that she is the same girl in this first picture!! She was so scared and so shut down. It has been a long, exhausting, wonderful, emotional and amazing year! Thank goodness we don't have to relive it!

Don't ask me why this picture looks like it was taken in 1972. (not a camera expert here)
