My Twin Blessings

Do you remember when I started a blog??? Yea… me neither, I had to look back on my Facebook posts just to remember the name of it. Has it really been over a year!?! I keep thinking about this blog and putting it off, what is it about being vulnerable that makes it soo easy to find excuses?

Anyway, today marks 2 years since the twins were born! It has been a busy two years we’ve moved out to the country, moved my Grandma in with us and started Kidz On Mission. Aside from the chaos and exhaustion of our new life we have so much to be celebrate.

The twins are our Rainbow babies, my sweet little blessings. Before I got pregnant with them we lost a baby. The day I won’t ever forget. We went into our appt. excited to find out the gender and instead they found a rare abnormality and told us our baby was at the end stages of heart failure, that night I felt the baby move for the first time. The next few weeks were a blur, I was so heartbroken but more than ever I felt God’s presence and comfort, I couldn’t explain it but I just knew everything was going to be ok. I trusted God was still in control, he didn’t take my baby and he would use this for my good.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

About a year later we found out we were having twins, to say we were shocked is an understatement. They don’t run in our family, and with one ovary I’m lucky to even get pregnant let alone with two babies. Still I was a little afraid to get excited after going through 2 miscarriages and it didn’t help that the Doctors treat multiples as high risk. But 38 weeks later out came two healthy baby boys. There has been some rough times but everyday I am so blessed to have these two smiling faces follow me around all day. So Happy Birthday to my handsome, loving little guys that make me smile and laugh all day! I know you are a gift from God and you have healed my heart.
