The Most Wonderful Surprise

Three years ago today I was very surprised to find out I was pregnant. It was all very much a God-thing for sure. And so today it was fun just to look at Aila--to be able to look in the eyes the answer to many a prayer. She is such a joy--just joy all crammed into this tiny, radiant person!
Yesterday I was at the doctor and saw the ultrasound photos from the baby boy we lost. Even a few years later, it leveled me. But that wasn't the end of the story, and I am SO grateful that God had these two precious ones in store for us!!!
We had a really fun day. I drove the kids to the train tracks and parked near downtown Acworth to wait for the train we knew was coming. Aila wasn't sure about the train horn...

Waving to the engineer

You'd think she had never seen a train before--she was ecstatic!
Right when the train ended, it began to pour. Here they are, enjoying a little
Ring-Around-the-Rosey in the rain.

Using their shirts as hoods

We were soaked, but it was so much fun! Self-timer cut off Trev's head in this one. :(

Coming home, ready to take a warm shower and put on some DRY clothes!
