Its that time of year again…. And I am so thankful! Happy Anniversary !!
10 Y E A R S.
Year 1: This was such a hard year, I didn't think we'd make it to year 2.
Year 2: Still hard as we were on one income and I was still in ReGen, but bc of Jesus we were able trust in His plan for us instead of bickering and to make it to year 3!
Year 3: We celebrated you graduating college and getting baptized! First time I ever cried tears of joy was this year....while married to you. 🙂
Year 4: I stopped working full time. I went part time so that I could to go to school and start a ministry that you supported me so well and encouraged me in.
Year 5: We had a baby!!!!
Year 6: Watching you with our son has been the best, and you still make sure I take care of me.
Year 7: We left the comfort of Trenton’s job as he pursued a new one and it’s been (mostly) great! Found out we were pregnant with baby #2 which leads us to...
Year 8: Baby Dax was born, I dealt with some post partum depression/anxiety, sold and bought a new house while living with my mom. 🤪 Trusted the Lord in taking a step down to serve the Deaf in a different capacity.
Year 9: oof. It’s been similar to year one as I’ve struggled with fear/anxiety and apparently I have minor OCD?! Trenton you have been a rock, a source of comfort, sanity, and support! This year has def had its downs but also has had its ups! We took the boys on their first road trip which exceeded all our expectations. We partnered with to launch the .gospel.centered podcast, continued renovations on the house, and learned how to partner better in parenting our boys.
Year 10: We got pregnant with baby #3! It’s been a big trusting the Lord exercise. I wasn’t sure I wanted another but you were confident in adding a 3rd. We broadcasted a conference with DMP out of our home and it’s been so fun serving the Deaf community together. We started the process of figuring out the best church fit for our family which has been hard but we are confident the Lord will continue to lead us.
Trenton, there’s nobody else I’d rather laugh, cry, cook, conflict, and journey through this life with than you!
