"We were thrilled to recently celebrate the first birthday of our daughter, something we didn't know if we would ever have the privilege of doing. She celebrated many anniversaries on her own as an embryo in storage, but this was truly a special blessing for us. Having a birthday close to Thanksgiving means that we got the opportunity to celebrate with family who we don't see regularly throughout the year, and Petra was happy to be the center of attention at a big party in her honor. There were even special celebrity guests, with Maria and Elisha being able to come meet our beautiful girl and see the wonderful person she is becoming, all thanks to the help and dedication of Embryo Adoption Services of Cedar Park. We are truly thankful this year for everything that has been made possible for us that seemed like just a dream a few years ago."
