Happy Birthday, Willa Gray! Lauren and Thomas Rhett shared pictures from their oldest daughter’s birthday earlier this week, and more than 300,000 fans on Instagram liked what they saw.
“Happy birthday sweet Willa Gray,” one fan wrote. “I love y’all,” another of Lauren’s social media followers said.
Mrs. Rhett also had sweet words for her oldest child. “My goodness Willa Gray, we have never prayed so hard for anything or anyone,” Lauren shared online along with a series of throwback pictures that showed her with little Willa Gray in Africa. “Now, halfway across the world from where we first met, you’re turning 2 and you are better than my best dreams,” she gushed.
“God not only answered our prayers for over a year when you came home, but He WAY exceeded them by giving us you. I love getting to be your mama and watching you shine. Happy birthday to my first baby. I love you to the moon and stars my precious little one.” We love it!
Willa Gray joined Lauren and Thomas Rhett’s happy family in Nashville several months back after the couple concluded a long and strenuous adoptive process that included several flights to Africa from the United States. The little one settled in the States just in time to welcome her little sister, Ada James, in August. Stay tuned for more Lauren and Thomas Rhett celebrity baby news!
