One year ago today...

Our lives changed forever.

We were given the most precious gift imaginable, our son.

One year ago today, we were united forever with Carlos, the most amazing, lovable, hilarious child I have ever known.

To commemorate this momentous occasion, here is a photograph from that day, December 18, 2006, of Carlos looking fairly freaked out by the scary red-lipped Santa Claus at the Marriott Hotel in Guatemala City.


Life will never be the same. Thank goodness.

Yes, it is pretty cool, and a giant change. But, that red lipped Santa kinda freaked me out too.

What a beautiful boy, then and now! Congratulations on the anniversary of that special day.

He handled the Santa well.

Congratulations on your first year as Carlos' mom! Thanks so much for sharing. I think Carlos was really brave to sit on that creepy Santa's lap!
