Sometimes Blessings Come in Pairs

Well... It has been like 500 years since I have blogged. Obviously, that is over dramatic, but you get my point. A lot has happened since my last post. Daniel and I have bought a house. I feel like a grown up. lol. We moved in on our one year anniversary. I could not think of a better way to be celebrating. What a blessing. Also, we found out that I am PREGNANT! I had always heard that they did not know if I would be able to carry children. Not only am I carrying a baby, but I am feeling good. Actually, I am carrying 2 babies... that is right it is TWINS. Daniel and I are so overwhelmed with blessings. I am only 9 weeks pregnant, but I am already overwhelmed with the two little blessings God has given us. 
So yesterday I got home from Las Vegas. I am coaching a cheerleading squad, and they made it to nationals in Vegas. It was definitely tough on my body. We walked all the time, and I was absolutely exhausted. I had a great time though. It was very neat to see. Our elite team placed 3rd. :) I am a pretty proud coach. 
This road ahead is going to be rough. I wasn't sure how my health was going to be with one baby let alone two. I am so excited to be a mom. I feel like that is what I am supposed to be. Losing school and my jobs really made me feel worthless. I was doing nothing with my life. Now, I am going to be a mom. I am going to be raising two human beings. What a blessing and an accomplishment. When I felt like I was worthless, God provided me with worth. He really knows everything. I am thankful for everything I have been through to get where I am now.
