Twelve days ago your papa and I recieved the phone call that forever altered our lives. It was a phone call we had expected to wait a year or two for and instead we waited only about two and a half weeks. That phone call let us know you were waiting for us and so we boarded a plane to Vegas to see for ourselves that indeed our dream had come true. There you were, snuggled in your birth mama's arms, waiting for your papa and mama to take you home. Since the moment you were placed in my arms, I have loved you fiercely. You are exactly what I have been waiting for and now this entire journey makes sense.
I want you to always know the unwavering love of your birth mama and I will forever be grateful for the time we were allowed to spend with her. You come from strength, commitment, passion, and love, and your papa and I will do all that we can to honor that everyday. You are the most amazing gift we have ever been given and so we will honor you everyday as well.
I hope we are always able to celebrate our similarities and remember that family has never been, nor ever will be, determined by color or blood, but rather by shared joys and an unwavering commitment to love each other every single day. I want the world for you - you should never be afraid to be exactly who you were meant to be. You are our dream come true, and even though you make funny faces when I kiss your cheeks and your lips repeatedley, I will do everything in my power to make all of your dreams come true.
Nicholas Brian Smith, I love you more than words can express. You have a circle of family and friends who have been waiting for you and who love you deeply and selflessly. I cannot wait to witness all that you become and I will always be your number one fan. You are our son through and through, and have been since before we even met you. We are so glad you are finally home.
Love,
Your Mama

Oh Sara.. this whole thing is just beautiful!! I am sooooooo happy for you, Trevor and little Nico! I would love to meet this bundle of joy someday! Congratulations again (for the like 50th time from me) lol.. a very simply beautiful family :)
Spoken like a Mama alright...
Welcome Nico! You are in for the time of your life. Can't wait to cheer you on.
I started by saying that Nico is a lucky boy to have you and Trevor, but then I wanted to say that you and Trevor are lucky to have Nico, and then I wanted to say how Trevor is lucky to have you and you to have Trevor but it really isn't about luck at all. It was all meant to be. When I see Nico turn at the sound of your voice or snuggle deep in Trevor's arms I think that your journey was and most importantly, will continue to be, worth it. We love you all!
