Now, where to begin?
Three years since my last post I wonder where to begin. Since then I have moved, quit my job (looking for a new one), and had one of the most amazing gifts God could provide in a happy, healthy baby girl.
So I guess I can begin there… with my baby girl. Five years ago last Friday I said “I do” and began an amazing journey with my best friend, 11 weeks ago we began the most exciting adventure yet with the arrival of Sarachaia KayLeigh Becker. She has been a great joy but also has shown me just how selfish I was before she came along. I have realized how amazing a gift it is to be loved. Only knowing her face to face for a second there was an overwhelming love that poured out of me. People say this is the most beautiful moment in your life and I saw that as cliche’ as it comes… but seriously, this was the most beautiful moment. Not that she was just so beautiful (she definitely is that) but that I could look from my mom, to Bryan’s mom, then to Bryan then to my daughter and see how much God has blessed all of us so very clearly through the arrival of Chaia (life). I knew that my life would never be the same and have never been so excited about change in my life. I knew that Bryan and I were given the ability to care for one of God’s covenant children and for the last 11 weeks and for a lifetime I cannot seem to thank Him enough.
