My Own Mother's Day!

Okay, we need to jump back a little bit.... to Mother's Day. And I'm going to jump right to the point...

I wrote about my Mother's Day weekend in Texas here. But what I didn't tell you is that as soon as I got home from my trip, I found out that I had actually just celebrated my very own first Mother's Day! Get it??? David and I found out at 9:00pm on Mother's Day that I am pregnant!

This picture was taken in the car at about
9:20pm because we immediately headed
over to tell my family! It was too good a
day to pass up!

Can't believe there's a little baby in there!
I was 5 weeks when we found out.

We couldn't be more excited for this new life! What precious and perfect timing that the Lord allowed us to find out on Mother's Day. So far the journey has been very bittersweet - wishing my Mom were here more than ever, knowing she would be so excited with us. But even in her absence, my heart is overjoyed and full of excitement. I can't wait to meet our little one!!!

"This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it."
