Grandma & Grandpa Young


Today I wanted to post a very special thank you to my parents. The past few months have not been easy ones for our little family. And I honestly do not know where we would be if it weren't for my parents. They have been our saving grace! My mom has been especially amazing. Being new parents is pretty hard stuff, but We have been lucky enough to have my mom close by to help us (especially me) learn the ropes. I swear she knows everything about everything! She has been there for me and Tray every step of the way. She was there when he was born and is still helping me everyday. Weather it was helping me figure out how to feed him, bathe him, burp him, get him to sleep, or even taking him after a super long night just so that I could get some sleep myself, she has done it all. She is an instant baby-sleeping machine! :) There have been times I would try and try and try to get Tray to take a nap, then after alot of rocking, bouncing and frustration I give him her and he is out like a light! Its pretty much amazing. No matter how much I need her help she is always ready and willing to help me. And there has never been a time she hasn't been excited to see and hold and play with Tray. And for that I am very very grateful. Kudos to all the new parents out there who are learning how to do everything on their own! I'd like to think We could have done it, but I sure am glad that we did not have to.

So, to Grandma and Grandpa Young-

Thank you soo much! Thank you for your love, for your support, for your constant concern for us. Thank you for helping us move a thousand times. Thank you for putting a roof over our heads and food in our bellies (We know how much food it takes to fill my husbands belly :) ) Thank you for being willing to hold Tray so I can take a nap or eat or take a shower! Thank you for the late night prayers and the early morning hugs. Thank you for loving Trayden. We love you both So much!
