An Answer to Prayer

This is the day that I found out I was pregnant!

I could not wait to tell daddy. I called him at work and tried not to sound fishy. I asked him if he would meet me for lunch. He said sure! I planned to surprise him by tying pink and blue balloons to the pregnancy test and laying out a pink and green onesie. The pink onesie had a deer on it and said, "Daddy's Little Dear." The green onesie had a deer and said, "Daddy's Huntin Buddy." Daddy cancelled our lunch because he was busy at work so I had to keep the news a secret all day! It was so hard!

When daddy finally got home, I had everything set up on the bed in our bedroom. I asked him if he would come see the new blinds we had installed on our window. When he came in, he looked confused at first and then when he figured it out he was so excited! We hugged and kissed and took some pictures together.

To celebrate that night, we went out to Niko's Lodge for dinner together (that is where we had the rehearsal dinner for our wedding). We talked about the future with you in it! We decided to wait a little bit before we told the rest of the family. We wanted to keep it our secret for a little while.

Praying for Our Angel

July 2012 is when daddy and I decided we wanted to welcome a baby into the world and begin our family. I began praying for you before you were sent to us. I prayed that God would send me a healthy, sweet and kind-hearted child. I didn't care if you were a boy or a girl, what your hobbies or interests would be or how you would look. All I wanted was for you to be healthy, happy and to have a kind heart. I also prayed that you would one day get to know God and do great things for His kingdom during your lifetime. Now all dad and I could do was wait and see when God was ready to send us our angel.
