Sometimes my world pauses for a few minutes and I have a minute to realize how incredibly blessed I am.
I am the most wonderful husband I could ever imagine. We are very similar in important things, but our personalities are incredibly different and we complement each other incredibly well. It took me 27 years to find him, but these past (nearly) four years have been the happiest of my life. We love each other more now than we did the day we were married, and we work as such a great team. With each trial that comes our way, we grow stronger and we aim to keep God in the center of our marriage.
Then, we have a beautiful, healthy, happy baby girl. We never had to worry about our fertility, we never had to go through tests or expensive procedures. We never had arguments about having a family, we always knew we wanted children, and we were incredibly blessed by the surprise of finding out we were expecting Tracey Ann.
Our daughter is such a sweet heart, she is incredibly curious, she loves animals, and she loves to read. She adores her Mama and Daddy, but is incredibly comfortable and confident around strangers (Father, God, please protect her). We have no concerns about her development or her health... we simply worry about keeping up with her.
Sure, Hubby and I are not swimming in money and our Roth IRAs have been neglected of late... but we are so rich in blessings, so overwhelmed with love, and we wouldn't want it any other way.
We have done absolutely nothing to be so completely blessed, but we continue to Praise and Thank the God of Love for showering these blessings on His servants.
