Remembering...




Today is pregnancy and infant loss awareness month and as I sit hear listening to my sweet baby boy who has most recently learned his precious voice and uses it all the time, I rejoice in God's grace yet mourn at the loss of our two other precious babies! Sweet little ones, you are missed every day and I know you'd be the best siblings to Zac man! I am so thankful for the short time God placed you in my tummy and smile knowing you now sit in His lap! Know you are remembered and loved always! Love this post written by a fellow fertility sister! Join today in the Wave of Light to remember these angels at 7-8 pm!

"Their Hearts are Steadfast, Trusting in the Lord"

A verse I had no idea would grow to mean so much to me! I wrote this post over a week ago now, just late posting! July 21, 2015 One month-It has been exactly one month since I've seen and talked to my Granny.  I have thought about what I have wanted to write in this post a million times, and a million times more have wanted to sit down and write it, but never could bring myself to do so. Well, I got my hair cut yesterday and all I could hear is my Granny saying, "Your Papa would be maaadd at you" and "Nooo you didn't cut it off". And again this morning, as I made my coffee, I am laughing at the last time I fixed coffee for my Granny. It was the week of June 15th and I was staying with her. I made coffee for myself and convinced her to try it.  It was way  too strong (Thank you Keurig for taking away my ability to make coffee in a regular pot). Granny responded with "oooo that's bitter" but then came the "it'll be alright...just a...

In Due Time...

Today was supposed to be the day I was due to give birth to our first born...Instead, here I sit not just with empty hands, but an empty womb. I also don't think my body got the memo that it is not preparing to give birth anymore with the amount of weight I've gained but that's for a different post. I wanted to make this post positive and share not about what we don't have, but what the Lord so graciously (and patiently) reminds me that I do have. Yet, today, that is so very hard to do. I want to question, to be bitter, to grieve our loss, but most of all just remember our babies. So here is their little story... The last year has been a huge joy to truly know fulfillment in Christ, but it has not come without a huge struggle.  I began the IVF process with birth control pills (as prescribed) in August.  In September, I had to undergo a hysteroscopy, a procedure to widen the cervix. For me, this confirmed our decision to seek out medical help, as we would never have kn...

Seeing Pink : Feelings/Fears Finding out + Being an advocate for yourself

November 14, 2019 18 weeks  pregnant…12 weeks  + 2 days longer than my first pregnancy. 14 weeks + 2 days  since seeing those two pink lines for the second time in my life, for the first time without fertility intervention. And the first time I’ve been able to sit down and try to gather and write out thoughts and try to wrap my head around all the work the Lord has done (and continues to do) in my heart during this pregnancy. While these words will be raw and confusing and hard and joyful, I want to have them to look back on as a tangible reminder of this season and of the Father’s pursuit of my heart. I also want to share them because while no two stories are the same, I know there may be someone with whom this will resonate, and prayerfully encourage! Part 1: Feelings/Fears Finding out + Being an advocate for yourself It was the first full cycle post endometriosis and a d&c (to check uterus for infection) when we found out we were pregnant. And...
