      FROM THE GROOM // Friday, April 21st 2017 will be a day I remember forever…this was the day I asked my best friend to be my wife.  I knew I wanted to make the day as special as possible while also being a surprise and between work and travel, just finding a date was hard enough.  That said, I knew I had to get creative and come up with a story intricate enough that she wouldn’t see it coming…

      After about a thousand failed ideas, I came up having to attend a ‘Baby Shower’ for a friend of mine on the beach.  I got a couple of our friends in on it to help establish the ‘love lie’ and planted the seed earlier in the month.

      After many days of looking at the ring and trying to plan for every detail, the day was finally here.  I was proud of myself for keeping the secret going for as long as I did but while getting ready, she threw me some curve balls…

      • I dressed a bit too fancy per my usual and was questioned thoroughly
      • She had asked that I call my friend to see what the other girls were wearing (lucky to have friends that think on their toes)
      • I asked her to change out of jeans and into a dress…BIG gamble with that one

      After barely escaping with the story (and my life) intact, we make our way to the ‘baby shower’.  I had many diversions planned and luckily, these went better than the earlier questioning.  We arrived on the beach and what a beautiful day it was.  As we found our spot, I could see Tiffani was already camped out and ready to capture the moment. After about 20 minutes or so, she began to wonder why no one else was at the beach yet.  I saw my opening and came clean that I hadn’t been truthful with her and that no one was coming.  I instantly saw the expression on her face change from annoyed to confused to happy.  I could tell she knew it was happening but in a very sweet voice, she asks me “Is this a date”?  It was in fact and one that we’d both remember forever.  It was then that I dropped down to one knee and came back to my feet the happiest man in the world.

      FROM THE MOMMA // Pregnancy with Aria has not been like anything I ever imagined. My knowledge of pregnancy was fairly limited, but I always imagined that I would at least be aware of when it happened because of all the common symptoms in the beginning.  I was completely unaware for a month and a half that our little one had quietly placed herself and taken up residence; waiting to surprise us with her presence. If I hadn’t mentioned my missed cycle to Andy, we may have gone on for another couple months without even suspecting her there.  It even took me a couple of weeks before the news really started to sink in and I began believing that there was in fact, a little, precious miracle growing in my womb.
      I have to admit, after hearing numerous stories from others, my pregnancy has been a breeze, and I feel incredibly blessed.  No morning sickness, no heartburn, no weird cravings – just a huge, itchy belly and the occasional swollen ankles and feet if I was sitting at the office all day. I sometimes think that this is all a trick to get me to agree to another baby and I’ll have morning sickness and all the awful symptoms doubled in the next round.
      I’m looking forward to meeting this little girl and learning about who God created her to be.  I definitely don’t feel like I’m totally ready for parenthood, but I’m trusting in the Lord that he chose Andy and I to be parents to this little one
      and to raise her well in his Love and that He will help us along the way.  Andy is just bursting at the seems to hold Aria in his arms and I think he hasn’t totally processed the hard reality of the sleepless nights and new changes and challenges of our new life with Aria that’s in store for us.  Then again, he may very well have, and is all the more excited and ready for it all; in which I am so grateful to call him my husband and the father of our child.  Aria is a very lucky and blessed little girl and I am so grateful to know that she is incredibly loved by so many.
