  1. What a wonderful year it has been for your family Sarah! I will never forget reading all of the memories and thinking how in the world did Ava get that up her nose and how exciting it was for us both to be having boys..then them both being the nicu! I am blessed to have been able to become blogger friends with you this year!!
