2015: The Year We Become FIVE
The year we go from TWO children to THREE.. Little messes to BIG
messes.. One in diapers to TWO in diapers.. Tired Parents to EXHAUSTED
Parents.. GMC Acadia to... dun dun duuuuunnnnnn... MINIVAN!
We knew we
wanted three or four children. We both grew up with younger siblings and
enjoyed being able to watch them grow into the young adults they have become.
We had our daughter earlier than ever planned, but she is still
our greatest blessing. It took us five and a half years to decide we
were ready to add to our family. I had finished my nursing education, he was
doing well with his job and we have this big house that just felt empty. Our
son was born in June 2013 and has been such a joy to our lives. Our daughter
has been the BEST big sister we could ever ask for. We decided that this time
around we would have our next child a little closer in age to our son... I was
thinking, three years difference?? Sounds good right? Well, per God's plan,
things took place a little earlier than expected and the littles will now be 22
months apart..... Yes, you read that correctly.. Twenty-Two Months apart. Now,
I'm sure many of you are thinking, "oh, that'll be easy!" I'm glad
you think so! Send me some of your patience and take away a little of my OCD.
Deal?? I am very grateful and fortunate that God had this plan for me. I know
everything will fall into place with time. I'm, both, excited and nervous for
this new adventure in our lives. Follow our family as we become a Family of
Five!
