Love for a Stranger

2011-05-25T23:00:00.000-07:00

So 1 year ago today I was given the greatest gift that a person can ever be given...My sweet little boy Ryder, I can not express how greatful I am to Ryder's birth mom for what she has given my family and I. I have never met her but I have so much love and respect for this amazing women. I will never be able to thank her enough for what she has done for us. But I will try to do that by giving Ryder all the love and support that I have. I can't wait for all the things life will bring us with Ryder in our lives and I am truly blessed to have him in my life. I just what to say Thank You to his Birth Mom!!!

The Love of my Life!!!!!!

2010-12-23T19:38:00.000-08:00

I just want everyone to see the love of my life and how big he is getting. I can't believe that in two short day's he is going to be 7 months old. I feel like it was just yesterday that he was placed in my arm's at the hospital and now he is crawling and trying to sit up and just being super cute all the time. I just love being a mom it is better then I thought it would be. I am so greatful to Ryder's birth mom for the best gift I have ever been given. I can never repay her and I will never be able to express how much love I have for this amazing woman that I have never even met. I would like everyone to know that having Ryder in my life is amazing, even righ now when he is crying and calling me da da I just smile because I love him so much. I do feel sad sometime's still and think that I should have a 4 year old and 3 year old running around. but I know that I will be with them again and I know that they are so happy that we have ryder in our live's. I and truly greatful for all that I have and I love all of it, the good and the bad. I'm not saying that I don't have hard time's cause turst me I do but I remember that I know what it is like to lose a child and I am loving even the most frustrating moments. I hope that everyone has a great Christmas and new year we love you all.

Life is GREAT

2010-10-04T21:08:00.001-07:00

I know that it has been a long time since I last posted. So i thought I would update. Life is great for the Taggart Family right now. on september 24th 2010 Ryder became ours offically. It was a great feeling. I cant express how greatful we are to his birth mother for giving us such an amazing little boy. I just love him more and more each passing day. Motherhood is everything and more then I hoped it would be and I am so greatful that I had Saide and Preston to help make me love and apreciate all the little things that most people take for granted. I love all of it. Even the 2am feedings. lol
Then On October 1st 2010 We got to have our sweet little guy sealed to us. He is ours forever!!!! I am so blessed that I get to have him in my life. I just want to thank everyone that was there to share our speical day with us it was really wonderful. I cant wait till the 10th because we will be having Ryder blessed. I Cant believe that it has been 4 months already. I feel like he has always been in my life and that in my arms is where he is ment to always stay.

I just want everyone to know that I am so thankful that I have the church in my life, I have gone through alot of trial in my 27 years but I know that everything has a purpose and that in the end you are a better person because of the things that you have gone through. I am so greatful for the knowdge that I will get to see my babies again and that I will get to raise them someday. I know that this is the true gospel and I am thankful to my parents for raising me to know that I can do anything with heavenly father on my side. I love my family with all of my heart and know that when ever I need them that they will be there for me. I hope that I am as good of a parent that mine were to me.

We believe that this stone is where the ashes of all the people who did there are now held. but we are not positive.
