“One week ago, my life was forever changed 👶🏻🥹💙,” began Mattie. “Wesley Alan Smith joined our little family on June 20th, the absolute best birthday gift I could have ever imagined. There is no greater honor in life than being chosen by God to be your mom. And no sweeter joy than watching your daddy adore you and protect you already.”

“Even our dog Ryman has reluctantly warmed up to her new little brother 🦮💕👼🏻,” she added in her caption. “You have all my heart and my prayers, baby boy. If you’re anything like both your namesakes (Connor’s grandad and @officialalanjackson), you’ve got quite a life ahead of you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.”

“I feel like I said so many times last year that 2023 topped the charts with more joy and celebration and redemption than any yet.
