Three years ago today we bought our first house. We got our keys from the agent and walked into our 3 bedroom, 1 bath 912 square foot home. It was perfect for us! I was in my Junior year of college and Rob was about to finish his first year of full-time ministry. Just the two of us, hanging out, loving each other and enjoying life.
We'll probably move out in 5-7 years we told ourselves. Our goal was to stay in our home until we had two kids. We knew the dining room was a limiting factor, it's nearly impossible to fit a family of four around our table because the dining room is so small. I had another year of school left and we probably wouldn't start trying to have kids until sometime after that. Then of course you have the 9 month wait for the first baby, the 1-3 year wait between kids, and the customary 9 month wait for baby #2 right? HA HA HA! God laughs at our plans!
Exactly 3 years later we have 2 beautiful gifts from God named Leeann and Titus. But as we hoped, we are able to move into a bigger home to accomodate our bigger family. EXACTLY 3 years later, isn't that just crazy? It's hard to believe and ironic in a weird way. God has blessed our marriage and our family in ways that we just can't fathom. Why is He so good to us when we are so undeserving? God is good, all the time!
