Emerick's bracelet

My Mom keeps complaining that I don't blog enough, that it has been over a week since my last blog post, so I figured I would blog something that I have wanted to blog for quite sometime. I know this is going to make you crazy Mom! (and especially Samantha & Megan)

When James and I were married in 2006, there is one thing we knew for sure - we wanted kids. We often talked about our future children, referring to them by the names we had already chosen. We talked about our first born, always referring to him as a boy named Emerick. We loved him before he was even conceived, and when we found out we were having a boy, it was really no surprise. Of course we were having a boy, the little boy named Emerick that we had talked about for all of those years, was finally on his way.

On our honeymoon, we had an adorable little bracelet made for the boy we hoped to have in the future. A mexican on the streets of Ensenada made the bracelet pictured below. We also had him make one for the little girl we hoped, and still hope will join our family in the future. A baby girl whose name will remain a secret to everyone but James and I, until the day she is (hopefully/maybe) here.
