Staying in ND!

You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them. ~Desmond Tutu

Last week Brad and I got wonderful news. We will not be moving far! It means so much to us that we will be staying near to our family. Knowing that we will be raising our children close to their grandparents, aunts and uncles means so much to us. We are ecstatic!!!

A Mother's Joy.

"A mother's joy begins when new life is stirring inside...when a tiny heartbeat is heard for the very first time and a playful kick reminds her that she is never alone."

Just a few days before the new year, much to our surprise, I found out that we are pregnant again. Just this last Thursday I say my Doctor and she gave me a due date of September 4th. That is the birthday of my 'Papa' my grandfather. He was one of the most important men in my life and not a day goes by were I don't think of him. What a blessing to be blessed with a new life due on the day he was born. I could not have a more special due date.


Also on Thursday my son Alec turned one year old. I cannot believe how fast the time went by, he is such a wonderful little boy. It was an amazing year seeing him grow, develop and change. I can't wait to see the person he becomes in the years to come.
