November 9th, 2010

On Novemeber 9th, 2010 my life changed forever. I could also tell you of the countless times my life changed forever before this date, like my wedding day, my first day of college, etc...but this date was different. It is the date my first child decided to enter the world. After 17 hours of labor, my son Finnigan was born. It has been 7 wonderful months since he arrived. We are incredibly blessed that God has given us such a beautiful little boy to call our son. His temperament is mostly calm and he has the most wonderful laugh. He has recently started saying "Mama and Dada" and I cannot wait for the first time he will say that he loves me, because I love him more than words can ever say. I am not trying to pretend that parenthood does not have it's difficult moments, because it does, but they are all so worth it. I want to use this space as a daily journal and be able to look back and read about all the special times I know are on the horizon. Life is constantly changing and Brandon, Finnigan and I are along for the adventure, wherever it takes us.
