Two Years

Two years ago, Keal and I decided we were ready to make our family-of-two a family-of-three. Two years ago, Friday, I found out a good friend of mine was pregnant. We were giddy with excitement to be beginning this new chapter together and discussed plans for future play-dates.

Now, here we are, two years later, and mine and my friend's families are in very different places. And while two years ago, this isn't at all where I thought we'd be today, I am grateful for these past two years. I'm grateful for all this journey has taught me. But most importantly, I'm grateful for my family and friends carrying me along this crazy journey to you.

Thursday, Aubrey surprised me with a great basket of goodies! I've been somewhat sad about entering the month of March because it represents such another negative landmark. I never thought you still wouldn't be in our lives, two years into this journey. So to receive a random, "Box of Sunshine," at the start of this sad month was such a great pick-me-up.

I pray it's not another two years until we finally meet you, but I also know that I will trust God and have faith in his timing, no matter how many years this journey lasts.
