Milestones

Sunday (march 20th) marked the twins being with us longer than they have been with anyone else. And today is our 1 year referralversary. I can't believe it has been a year since we received the call and email that changed our lives forever. I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I will never forget the feeling of seeing the email titled referral or of seeing Avery and Isabelle's faces for the first time. It was a whirlwind of emotions. I remember being at work pacing the floor waiting for Matt to get here so we could open the email together and getting mad because he didn't get here as soon as I wanted him to. I also remembering seeing that I had missed a call from our agency and after hearing the message just saying "please call me back" thinking that they were missing some paperwork, since we had only been waiting 2 months to the day. Not in a million years would I have thought we had gotten our referral. Seeing the email title I just broke down crying and in total disbelief of what I was seeing.

Parenthood is a lot harder than I ever could have imagined but so worth it. Getting to be mommy to Avery and Isabelle is the reason I was put in this world and I wouldn't change a thing.
