Our Little Flowers Family: *3 Year Anniversary!*

Today is our 3 year anniversary! wooo whooo!!! I totally thought we would have baby number 2 by today but he is still in the oven cooking away! Three years seems like a good amount and sounds like nothing compared to my parents 30th wedding anniversary coming up next month! There is so much that has happened in the last 3 years, it definitely has gone by fast.
Within 3 years of marriage we have:
-lived in 4 different places (apartment, condo, my parents, and our own house)
-we had our first baby
-became homeowners
-basically remodeled our new home
-owned 6 different vehicles (4runner, honda, mazda,ranger, gmc and our passat)
-Shelden restored a '79 honda 185T (we are selling it...let us know if you are interested!)
-Shelden started his own business NewLight Co. and sold it
-I became a stay at home momma
-Shelden started fulltime at BMW/VW and got a promotion
-we became pregnant again
-had 2 different roomates (Shout out to Matt and Brookie!)

It definitely has been one change after the next, I used to look for things to settle down and level out in our life but that really hasn't happened. Our lives are about to change again as we are anticipating the arrival of Joshua Anthony Flowers. The last few nights I thought there was a chance he was coming but obviously he is not here. It still is a little surreal that we will have 2 boys running around. I really feel like a mom now that I will have 2 kids, it is going to take me to a whole new level of selflessness. I really had no idea what our life would look like together when we said "I do" three years ago. I was just so ready to be married to my best friend and share everything with him. I had no idea we would be on our 2nd child by now and living in our own place. I am so thankful for the tough times that God has taken us through. I am thankful that we both fight for this marriage and to love God first. God has weeded out insecurities and selfishness in us and is continuing to weed out more things. I am so thankful for my husband, he never ceases to amaze me with hidden talents and random knowledge he has. I am so proud of him for working so diligently at his job. God has taught him so much about himself through his job and I love watching him grow. Shelden is such a great dad, I can see in Micah's eyes how much he adores Shelden. No one can make Micah laugh like his daddy does. I can't wait to see where God will take us in the next 5, 10 and 15 years. It is such an adventure to obey God and I am so very thankful that my husband fears and loves the Lord.
