Cheyenne Leigh

Happy 17th Birthday, beautiful girl.

You've been goofy since you were tiny, and you still crack me up on a daily basis. 

You are beautiful, inside and out. Don't you ever let anyone tell you otherwise.

You are so smart; so hard-working; so compassionate; so loving; so giving; so strong; so talented; so determined...I could go on and on. 

I miss you every single day, and I can't wait to see you!

I am so very, very proud of you. I hope your birthday is as amazing as you are. <3

"Good things come to those who wait."

Yeah.

"Good things come to those who wait"...and pray, and pray, and pray.

Finally.

After over five years of waiting and praying, my stepdad was granted full custody of his kids, Christin and Scott, and they were able to move from Lexington, Mississippi to Boise, Idaho to be with my mom and my sisters. Meet some of the most important people in my life:

Left to Right: My sister, Cheyenne - 16; My stepsister, Christin - 12; My half sister, Trinity - 7 1/2 months; My stepbrother, Scott - 8, My stepdad, David; My mom, Sandy. <3

And while I'm at it, Happy Birthday to my amazing stepdad. So glad you are home with your family. I can't wait to see all of you! <3
