Telling the Parents

Both of our parents knew that we had been trying to have a baby. Both of our mom’s actually had us on their prayer lists. My mom had a prayer list specifically for women she knew who were pregnant. She felt God tell her to add my name to that list as an act of faith. Kyle’s mom also shared how God had also given her a word that Kyle and I would have a baby in 2016. So, when we shared the news with both sets of parents, you can imagine the extra amount of joy our moms had as their specific prayers were answered!

Kyle and I decided to wait until around Valentine’s Day to tell our parents. I think that we told my parents a little bit before and Kyle’s parents on actual Valentine’s Day. We wanted to find a creative way to tell them since this was such a momentous occasion! We’ve seen several different ways to share the news on facebook and pinterest, etc. so as you can imagine (especially if you know me) I felt a bit overwhelmed in trying to make a decision, but I think what we settled on was simply perfect. Instead of me writing it out, take a look below to see how we shared the news. πŸ™‚
