I really like this family of mine. February 14th will be three years since Justin proposed to me. I was an 18 year old completely infatuated AND faithfully committed to this spunky, passionate, super cute guy. I, of course, had no idea what the future held, but welcomed it with open arms, willing to let the Lord be in control.
When we were best friends, we were so ready to be "together" and "official". And when we were together, we so wanted to be engaged. And when we were engaged we couldn't wait to be married. But...when we were married, we were content. We were finally together. We definitely wanted kids but we figured that would come later on down the road. Boy were we ever wrong! A little over a month after we were married, we discovered I was pregnant. It was a surprise, but joyful, genuinely happy and excited tears were shed after seeing that pregnancy test show up positive! Kyler Jace - May 4th 2013.
Kyler was around 10 months when we found out about new baby! I was secretly hoping I would get pregnant again pretty fast. Funny how quickly I forgot how painful childbirth was. At the same time, I was scared - could I handle two under two? Well, it didn't really matter, because he was coming! Elijah Riley - November 10th 2014
Did I say I like my family? I really like my family. Even though kids came into the picture sooner than we thought, we wouldn't change ONE SINGLE THING. Justin and I have only grown deeper in love and closer to each other through having kids and all the experiences that come with it. On the blowout poopy diaper days and on the all about giggles and good naps kind of days.
We love this life God had given us. I am so excited to see what our future holds! But for now...I am soaking in these special days.
