I still can't believe that I am a mom. Chase and I tend to say to each other, "I can't believe this baby is ours!" or "We are parents! This is so crazy!" It's crazy that in one day our life was completely changed. People told us before we got married how different life was going to be. It was in some areas (wink, wink). But, not really. For us it was an easy transition. We thought we had worries, concerns and responsibilities before. This was true... we did have these things. But, now it's amplified. I remember sitting on our coach in Birmingham, AL right after Olive was born and talking with Chase. We were talking about there being another person in our house and how we will probably always worry about this baby girl. In the beginning (and still today- four month later) I would go into her room just to make sure I could hear her breath. I must remember as I begin to worry about Olive and her future that God is completely in control. I pray that I will always remember this truth. In the good times and in the bad times.
