Guess Who's Going to Be Parents...

You guessed it...David and I.  We found out a week after my Dad passed.  I thought I was only 5 weeks along but when I went to the doctor last week he said I was 7 weeks.  The tentative due date is January 10th.  We are SO excited!  It has been a bittersweet moment.  God has given us new life to rejoice in during this time of sadness.  I got to go to New York City to do some promo videos for my pump company and had the chance to go down to Times Square.  There I bought Baby Tarver's first shirt...

A Time of Sorrow

Last week on Tuesday, May 12th my Dad passed away.  I will never forget the call I got from my Mom that morning telling me.  It felt...and still feels...like a horrible dream.  This has been the hardest thing to go through.  I thought, knowing he was no longer in pain and dealing with all of his medical issues that this wouldn't be so hard.  Boy, was I completely wrong.  My Mom's church family and our church family has been incredible through all of this...bringing us food, calling and checking on us, cards, etc.  The Sunday before he passed was Mother's Day and am so thankful we all got together that night to celebrate.  We had such a blast that night.  Here are the last couple of pics of him. 
It has been so good to hear how my Dad has changed peoples' lives in the short time he was here.  Dad, you will be missed more than you could have ever imagined.  I love you very much!
