Live & Learn

• Many events in life occur for a reason. Maybe they occur to make you stronger, to test your abilities, or to give you a story to tell. I have been through many tribulations in my life; some of them are seen as nothing in the eyes of others, but to me they were. This passed year I have been put through some of the biggests tests of my entire life, and I am proud to say that I am overcoming them beautifully. Although I am still trying to cope with some things, I give myself a lot of credit for handling my trials and not giving up. First and foremost I am thankful for God giving us strength to pull through. I am also very thankful for the family members and friends who have helped Emmanuel and I during the rough times of our pregnancy. Throughout all of the bad news that was ever received, Emmanuel and I still kept out heads up and we are standing strong today. Everyone who doubted us has been proven wrong. Yes, the way things that were done were highly out of order and unrighteous, but with prayer and forgiveness we know that everything will be okay.
• I am so excited to meet the little baby that has been tumbling around in my tummy. I am excited to begin my life as a mommy and wife. Although I am only 19 years old, I will take full responsibility as a mother and wife. I understand that it is going to be rough and things will seem impossible sometimes, but with God by my side and with Emmanuels help I will overcome my weaknesses and build my strength.
• Our baby will be here late April or the beginning of May... am I scared? Yes. Am I worried? Yes. Do I still feel like I'm still a kid sometimes? Yes. But I am as ready as I can be, and I look forward to being a mommy & a wife.
