rainbow has arrived

In 2011, I wrote a blog post about the meaning of Koi fish and the love that Demetrius and I have for them. (click here to read ) I researched their meaning more thoroughly when we found out that we were expecting again, and couldn't find a name more fitting. Demetrius and I had to overcome a huge obstacle in life when our daughter, Adelyn Jade went to heaven. Losing a child is extremely hard and at times I didn't know if we would ever find happiness again. Even though life threw us an unwanted curve ball, Demetrius and I have made it to easier and happier times.

Koi symbolize levels of strength and perseverance that people display through the trials and tribulations of life. They also represent strong individuals who have overcome struggles and hardships and I for sure feel that my hubby and I have definitely done that. Koi is our living proof that with love and much needed support, you can make it through anything. With our hearts filled with joy and happiness, I am excited to share with all of you our rainbow, our son, our Koi Winston Hilmes.
