Summary

SummaryI was just sixteen when a pregnancy test changed everything—a mix of panic and tears flooding my heart at a carnival on spring break. Holding hands with Aaron, I watched the two lines appear and felt God’s gentle arms surround us. Though shame whispered lies, my stepmom’s own teen-mom testimony and my father-in-law’s reminder that “God knew this was going to happen” lifted that weight like a boulder off my shoulders. Returning to school with a visible bump, I faced isolation, but God’s faithfulness carried me through. Marrying Aaron at the justice of the peace gave us security—medical benefits, a home, and a community that cared. Living on our own during his Air Force training taught me that even when life feels backwards, God is weaving “the expected unexpected.” Today, looking back at old photos—prom nights, our little family growing—I see His unchanging love and provision, and I choose to share this story so others know they’re never alone.

Pregnant at 14, Haley Negron was scared and full of shame. But this “accident” wasn’t a surprise to God. He was weaving together a much bigger story in her life.
