One Year Ago

One year ago today, we heard the words that would change our lives forever, two little words that I honestly was beginning to think at the time I would never hear..."you're pregnant!" I still remember everything about that day like it was yesterday...not that it could be a day to forget. I can't believe it has been a year already...last March I wasn't sure if we would ever have kids and this March I am loving on my two gifts from God. It's amazing how everything works out. With all of the failed IVF cycles we had I was so disappointed, but if any of them had worked we wouldn't have Ethan and Evan right now, and I can't imagine life without them. The fun part about IVF (if there even is such a thing) is that we have a picture of the boys as embryos. How many people can actually say they have that??

From embryos in March to our beautiful boys in November...

"For You created my inmost being;

You knit me together in my mother's womb.

I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

Your works are wonderful,

I know that full well.

My frame was not hidden from You

When I was made in the secret place.

When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

Your eyes saw my unformed body.

All the days ordained for me

were written in Your book

before one of them came to be."

Psalm 139:13-16
