Surprise

As some of you may know, Jeremy and I were blessed with a wonderful surprise before we were married. We found out we were pregnant with our wonderful little girl Addie. I wouldn't change what happened and how it happened for anything in the world. She is the best thing that has ever happened to us.


The day I thought I might be pregnant I text Jeremy and told him we needed to take a pregnancy test that night. He called me and assured me everything would be okay. I was terrified. I thought I wasn't ready to be a mother. I thought Jeremy would leave me because raising a child is a big commitment. You can imagine everything racing through my mind. He told me not to worry and he would never leave my side. I cried and thought to myself "How did I find such a wonderful man?" To this day I still ask myself that question.

The first time we looked at the pregnancy test we thought it was negative, but at second glance it was positive. I cried again in fear thinking of all the thoughts that were racing through my mind earlier that day. I looked at Jeremy and told him if he wasn't ready to be a father he didn't have to stay with me. He grabbed my face and said don't ever say those words to me again. I told you once and I'll tell you again "I will always be by your side, and I couldn't imagine life without you." We cried with each other in happiness and in fear. We knew that together we could do anything and everything imaginable because we loved each other and that's all that mattered.

Soul Mates

I still remember the day I first met Jeremy. I knew he would have a special place in my life from the first day I met him. What I didn't know is that he was going to be the love of my life.

Our love story didn't start out like any other love story does. He just returned from Boot Camp and I just finished a dance class at UVU when we met at our friends house for Taco Tuesday. Being the girl I am, I challenged Jeremy to an eating contest just for fun. I lost by 2 tacos. He thinks differently, but it was 2 tacos. Anyway..... later that night we played sting pong with a bunch of friends and I was loosing horribly. I had quite a few welts on my back. Jeremy being the gentleman he is, offered to take my hits for me knowing I really didn't want anymore welts. That's when I knew he was different, and that's where our love story begins. From that day on we were inseparable and quickly discovered we were soul mates.
