From the heart......

I know I share a lot on this blog, but I try to not put EVERYTHING out there for the world to see, but I feel that it is time to share the latest of my testimony with my blog friends.

Nov. 8 will be one year since we lost our 3rd child due to a miscarriage. After lots of tears, prayer and a year later I am finally able to talk about it without crying my eyes out(it probably doesn't help that I cry at a drop of a hat anyway!).:-)

I know that this was all in God's plan and I am full of joy knowing that one day I will meet our sweet baby in glory! I would be lying if I said I don't still think about how old he or she would be and what milestones they would be doing. I don't ever want to forget about the sweet baby that God allowed me to carry for a few short months. I will always treasure those memories and I praise God for allowing me to be part of His plan. He needed our little angel more than we did.:-) I know it sounds crazy and we don't understand and ask WHY a lot, but through this I have learned more than ever to not ask WHY? but to praise Him through the storm and thank Him for allowing me to be part of His plan!

As I look back over the past year I am reminded of how much God loves me and how He has held me in His arms and has loved me even when I have not been all that lovable! I have learned so much during this time and have been blessed beyond words!

I don't know why I felt lead to share this tonight, but maybe there is someone reading this that needs to hear that no matter what trail you are going through, God will never leave you and that you are part of His perfect plan! I pray you have a wonderful night!!!

Well, that is all for now, I will leave you with 2 pictures from last week:-)

My little sweeties! Oh how I love those two!!!!

and here is my little comedian, there is never a dull moment when he is around!

Lori-thanks for sharing! You may never know who you touched by doing so.Somedays it is hard to see it as a blessing, but to know that my experience will help me to minister to someone else makes it worthwhile.

Thanks for sharing! I hope those words helped bring healing to yourself and may other be encouraged. Life is hard at times and it is easy just to fake it. Thanks for being honest.
