Mountain Top
Tired isn't the word to describe my energy level.. but despite that, I am feeling so thankful today! There's such a joy in our house as we prep for and anticipate becoming a family of 4. This joy is a bit more special for us, as we weren't sure we would ever experience parenthood in this way again. It's been an interesting ride these past 7 years as a single child family. We have walked through valleys and stood on mountain tops. We have struggled through finances, frustration, hard changes and the challenge of parenting. But through it all we have grown together. We have created memories. We have become conquerors. About 3 years ago, we decided to expand our family. Medical issues arose, and we were facing a reality of never bearing a biological child again. We were willing to accept that on the outside, but that desire was still burning in both of our hearts. We began to lose hope, and started considering adoption. (Which may still happen for us in the future).
