12 Months/ 6 Months

12 Months ago today, I had pretty much given up on praying for a baby.
6 Months ago today, our prayer was answered.

12 Months ago today, a teenage girl was faced with the reality that she would be giving birth to a baby in 6 Months.
6 Months ago today
, that baby girl was born.

12 Months ago today, we had no idea of this baby.
6 Months ago today
, we got the call that this baby was born, and we prepared to go meet her.

12 Months ago today, the idea of us having a child seemed beyond hope.
6 Months ago today, the idea of us having a child become a reality in the most unique way.

She's six months old today.
As she stood on my lap, bounced and smiled, I thought back to a year ago tonight.
She's changed my life.
I love her.
