All because two people fell in love....

When we made your announcements your Dad and I talked about quotes that we wanted added on the card. I went the biblical route and your Dad wanted, "All because two people fell in love." To us it means that over 10 years ago we fell in love and could have never imagined our life as it is today. We have been blessed in so many ways that it has been beyond our wildest dreams. This saying means so much to me, it means because we fell in love we have created a life together and our life created yours which is so fascinating to me. I will not lie, when your father and I started dating having a family was so far from our minds. We swore we did not want children, I really think we were scared and afraid to admit it. What if we were failures? What if we didn't know how to be good parents and give you all of the love in the world. In one word we were selfish. BUT, that all changed on April 22, 2006. After our wedding we were in our hotel room discussing our plans for our future and I just could no longer imagine living a life without children. We talked about it more on the plane ride to our honeymoon and it was decided that we would beging trying to start our family. Funny how quickly something like a wedding and a combining of two lives into one can change ones perspective. Since then we have yearned for our baby and 4 years later we were finally blessed with the most indescribable gift. You know our story, but how amazing is it how each road block only strengthened our desire to have a child. I truly believe that God made sure we had made up our minds for sure considering it was such a swift turn of the minds.

All because your father and I fell in love we have you and the wording on your announcement could not be more perfect. The day we were married and truly fell in love for a lifetime we decided to start our family and here we are 4.5 years later with our gift. I hope you always remember that materialistic things in life are not important but what is most important is God and secondly your family. Family is everything and my dream for you is that you always have your family to love and support you and that your family is what you can always depend on and someday I hope that you have your own family all because two people fell in love.
