We have always been firm believers that when it is our time to become parents, God will provide us with a child. After feeling called to begin "not taking preventative measures" over a year ago-we did not get pregnant for 13 months. Not feeling down or averted, we continued to feel it hasn't been our timing. It has however been a lot of "what-ifs" and wondering "is this the month?" whether you are consciously trying or not :) We now feel called to zero in on our marriage and just be us for the time being. It has left us both feeling at peace that we finally get to be out of school, on a regular routine and focusing on having fun as a couple! We are most excited just to say "we should do this" and actually go do it! I know it may sound silly, but until now we have been held back by finances as well as our commitment to school-whereas Alan will still have his full time job, we will have the weekends off together as well as vacation time once he has accumulated some time. We are so excited to do some traveling and get even more connected to each other-doing just whatever! We still are looking forward to being parents one day and hopefully not to far out ;) but we are also loving living for now and not living for the day we have a baby...if that makes sense :) I think we always thought since we were married young we'd have kids soon after. Now that we know more of what our life looks like out of college, it is easier to see (don't ask me how) the opportunities we have available to us, no matter what they are. EEK-exciting! It will be a blessing and even more exciting I'm sure when the day comes that we announce we are pregnant, but for now it is exciting that we have each other! *cheesy!*
Until next time!!! (hopefully not two months from now!)
