Today marks the 2 year anniversary of our miscarriage. Late night, into early morning 2 years ago Chad and I spent 4 or 5 hours in the Emergency Room only to find out that our first child had passed away. For more of our journey over the past couple years check out my first post detailing our Birth Story.
Then a year later (one year ago) we conceived our second little love, Elias! It is such a joy to have him in our life. I truly cannot describe the love I have for him and every day I thank the Lord for giving him to us!
Today Chad and I were pondering the craziness of the past couple years. It has been a roller coaster of emotions, almost surreal to look back on. God has given us strength in the midst of weakness, joy in the midst of sorrow, and love in the midst of heartache! Praise be to God!
Elias reached another fun milestone today...rolling over for the first time! It is so exciting to see him growing up before our eyes. He continues to be more and more fun and interactive, i'm loving the time I get with him and cherishing this full-time until I have to begin work in August!
I just can't imagine going through life with anyone else. God has placed you in my life as not only my wife, but my "ezer", or helper in life. I love you dearly. Thank you for sticking with me during the hard time and the good. I look forward to the rest of our life together.
