F-I-N-A-L-L-Y!

There have been times when I did not think this day would ever come. That I would be a mother first of all and that we would be a family of three. (For those of you who do not our story, Stephen and I struggled with infertility and were blessed with our sweet Caroline through adoption in April of 2007) Next, that Stephen would ever be finished with medschool/residency. (That process only took 7 years) And last but certainly not least, that I would become a stay at home mom. (That one has been 31 years in the making) Growing up there were no visions, goals, or dreams for my future that didn't involve me being a mother. It's what I've always wanted to do and I have been blessed with the opportunity to be a mother to the sweetest little girl in the whole world!
So, yes the time has finally come.......we are a family of three, Stephen is finished with the long journey of training to become a doctor, and I am officially a stay at home mom.....and it feels so right!

God has been so faithful through it all and we give Him all the glory!

I'm trying again!

So, I tried a few months ago to start this blog and didn't quite have the inspiration needed at the time to keep it going. As you can see from that post, I started it right after we came back from San Antonio and had just watched the Tigers lose the national championship game. What was I thinking?? I think I have just now gotten over the loss and I feel a little inspired now.(and I received a friendly little nudge from my dear friend Heather) Hopefully I will do a better job of keeping up with it and keeping all of my friends and family informed of all the happenings in the Stancil household! Stay tuned......
