It’s both sad and exciting. I’ve known Us for 9 years now and it’s always been just Us. But now Us looks different. It’s with uncertainty and a calming fear that leads me into prayer asking God for His blessing in this new season. It’s so hard to not know what these future days will look like, but I have no choice but to trust. With every project we work on, I can’t help but try to soak in these final moments of being a family of 2.
Honestly, it hits me almost daily, especially when we’re laying in bed together in the silence of night— these are the final moments as just Amner and Michele.
However, I know the Lords plans are higher & greater. They are plans to prosper. I have grown to cling onto His promises, especially this season. I know what is ahead of us is not the happiness we see on Instagram or the inspo we pin on Pinterest. It’ll be beautiful because it’s our greatest project yet— our greatest responsibility yet. It’ll have its challenges and changes.
But that’s what makes a project beautiful— the final reward, knowing it took hard work.
Baby girl, your mother and father have grown their friendship since September 2013, we have taken time to discover our identities in Christ and our identity as a couple. Our mission as a family is always to serve God and His children. We are humbled that the Lord chose us to raise you. We are grateful for our future lives with you and we know those changes will be beautiful because He is the potter and we are the clay.
