Happy Mother's Day!

I am so thankful that God made me a mom!
Even from a young age it was my desire "just" to be a mom!
This is my first Mother's Day with Megan.
May 5, 1996
This was also one of my first times holding her.
I had to wait about one month to hold her.
She started out so tiny - we would have to hold her "kangaroo" style.
She weighed in at 2 pounds!
We tried for a long time to have Caleb and FINALLY
he came to us on July 4th, 1999.
He truly was our little firecracker!
He weighed in at 8 pounds and 9 ounces.

Jacob was a complete surprise for more than one reason!
The main reason being . . .
the doctor said that he was 98% sure we were having a girl.
So all along we planned on little Emily . . .
and were we surprised when a 10 pound baby Jacob was born!
