Even though we are in the midst of Thanksgiving festivities, we took advantage of the day off together and began our Christmas preparations. And as we started putting up the tree, hanging lights, ornaments and stockings, I couldn't help but remember last Christmas. Emmy standing by the tree as we told her that she was going to be a big sister. Or hanging our stockings and wondering, if everything goes well, would there be another little one with us next year? And as I stood there today watching our family of four, as we laughed and played, my mind went back to everything we have been through....the loss, the emotional roller coaster, the five pregnancies in five years. And now....our joy. Our two precious joys. This Thanksgiving particular, I am thankful....thankful beyond measure.
