We’re having a baby?!?
My husband and I had the wait-five-years-to-have-a-baby plan when we got married. Then….We’re having a baby! A month after our second anniversary, we found out we were pregnant.

These are a few of my favorite things…

Hands down, it would be Jesus. Start to finish…from His birth through His life to His death…Jesus is my favorite miracle!
