How do we know when the beginning starts?

It's amazing how much life can change even in the shortest periods of time. It's been nearly 2 years since my last post in this journal and I can certainly say A LOT has changed...
Looking back it's as if I was in some alternate universe, like I took a wrong exit and had to loop back around to get on my life path. That's what it feels like - some backwards journey that led me right back to where I was before, right back into his arms. The journey hasn't been easy, but at least now I feel like I'm moving forward, not sideways.
I decided to write again, partly inspired by my wonderful friend, Heather, and partly because I realized that I am moving into my third trimester and have yet to document any of my pregnancy thusfar. That's right. In the past 2 years I....

  • married the love of my life, Mason Shehan
  • became a marine corps wife
  • moved to Hawaii
  • got pregnant with a wonderful baby boy, William Mason...the fifth
So much new has happened. Is it weird to say I knew it would? Is it weird to say that 6 years ago I could have told you that one day we would be married with kids? We certainly encountered some mishaps along the way, but I knew we would get here eventually. And maybe soon we will be out of this wretched excuse for a command and in a place where we can be free from ALL of the strings holding us back.
