i can't believe it is already december 26th, christmas has come and gone. i can't believe that preslee and mason's first christmas has passed. last night drew and i were reflecting on where we were this time last year and all the blessings that God has poured over us since then. december 25th, 2006, i had been on bedrest a month already. our basement had become my new home. our november u/s had shown that mason wasn't growing as fast as preslee and my ob was concerned that she might have even stopped growing. so, the plan was for me to rest on the sofa, on my left side to give her the best possible chance to catch up. i spent most all of those days on the sofa in constant prayer. prayer that they would both continue to grow and be healthy. i remember starting at their heads and praying specifically for each part of their bodies and every single organ to grow normally. well, as the old saying goes, be careful what you pray for. God, again blessed us, our baby girls were born perfect!
as we wrapped up the day yesterday and got ready for bed last night, i again prayed for preslee and mason, their health and their happiness. but this time, i thanked God for the most amazing and fulfilled year of mine and drew's life.
here are some pics of our amazing first christmas
