It's been quite a while since I've found my way to typing out my thoughts. Today, however, it's all I can think about doing. Today marks a very special day for our family. It is a day we've been waiting on for two years one month and sixteen days; our sunshine just officially entered the state of Iowa.
I wish I could say this blessed event is under wonderful circumstances, but I wouldn't be being honest. On Jan 22nd (Penelope's 3rd birthday to boot) Aubrie's mother was killed in a car accident. I hope that we can turn this tragedy into triumph for her. But only time will tell. Until then I'm just going to take in the sight of her. The warmth of her. The joy I feel, and most importantly, the relief that has washed over me knowing that God has blessed our family. He protected our baby. Through everything that went on, he protected her.
My heart is full.
