Enough

So I recently had a conversation with a friend. She was asking if kel and I were wanting to start having another baby soon. She has know me a long long time and knows I want a large family and my kids close in age. This question has come up a lot from people an I always have the same answer.

It would be easy to say no for financial reasons, or because my pregnancy was so rough, or that the Dr said I should wait because of my c section. There are a hundred EXCUSES (valid or not) to wait.

However I don't need an excuse. My answer is that my daughter is enough to fulfill my life. She grows everyday and while some women are sad as their baby gets older, I might some day hit that stage. But for now I am so excited for every milestone and if I never have another Cecelia is enough for me. If I do have more I will be happy whenever they are given to me, but I find no need to rush!

It saddens me to know that what people have is never enough, either in their jobs, material goods, family etc. Right now everything I have is MORE than enough and as log as I continue to work hard at everything ibdobi will never want for anything! Cecelia brings me more joy and as long as I have her I am more blessed than I ever thought I would be.

One year

I am very late posting this, but recently I celebrated my first wedding anniversary who my wonderful husband. I can't help but think of all we have gone through and grown this year. This time last year we were both looking for new jobs and talking about a baby time frame. Since then kel and I found out we were pregnant, I got a new job, we found out baby was a girl, we moved into a house, kel got a new job, my nephew was adopted, we had our beautiful baby girl and we settled down.

So much happened and it was all so positive and amazing. We have had a lot of laughs, a lot of tear and a lot of each other. We work hard everyday to love each other. Life without kel would be impossible and I thank God everyday for him. I get more butterflies in my stomach when I see kel now than I did a year ago. I am so thankful for our year together and couldn't imagine anything else. Life is perfect because he is a part of it!
