We're Kelli and Sterling Stoddard (let's be honest though, he won't be blogging!). We live in a tiny farm town in Southeast Idaho.
We met in 2010 while I was visiting a friend in Moscow, Idaho and he was there going to school at the University of Idaho. I went home to California a few days later, and we talked constantly. We both fell for each other pretty hard and fast.
I ended up transferring to the University of Idaho and moved to Moscow a few months later. We were engaged six months after that, and married in November 2011. We both received degrees from the University of Idaho (Go Vandals!)--his in Agribusiness and mine in Psychology.
We welcomed our first little girl, Brynleigh Grace, in January 2013. We also moved back to Sterling's hometown in 2013.

In February of 2014, our lives were turned upside down. Our second little girl was born premature and passed away shortly after. We then found out that I have a chromosomal disorder that puts me at high risk for losing my babies.

This blog is our story. We love this life we have--heartbreak, obstacles, blessings, and all. We struggle, but we try to stay focused on how truly blessed we really are. Thanks to our faith, we're able to turn our trials into testimonies.
