Back in September when David and I planned to stay home for the holidays we had no idea we were expecting. When we found out we were going to be having a baby, we thought it’s good we planned on staying home for the holidays. With our loss I am so thankful that the plans to stay home were already in place. I don’t think I could have done Christmas with extended family this year, especially since several family members are expecting and our loss is so recent.
David, Caleb, Madilyn and I had a great Christmas with just the four of us. It was just a day of peace, quiet and relaxing. The kids enjoyed their gifts and we had a nice Christmas dinner. It was nice to be able to be in our own home for the holiday. While David and I love our extended families sometimes we just need to take a break and focus on just us with no other distractions.
David and I are both sick, but we are making the most out of spending time with the kids.
