Yep, you read it... we are pregnant! It honestly was a gift from God and all in His perfect timing. :)
I found out on July 6th and the past three weeks have been surreal. I am learning once again about faith and trusting the Lord in all that I do.
With our first pregnancy a year and a half ago I didn't even have a thought of miscarriage when we first found out, I knew this was going to be our time. Sadly, it wasn't and a few short weeks later our dreams of being parents were shattered.
This pregnancy I am finding myself much more cautious because I have felt that loss, that pain of having that dream so close to your heart ripped away. Even though the statistics are after my first miscarriage I am 80% likely to have a child with my next pregnancy, it is easy to doubt and put myself back into the darkness I felt after our first loss.
Our first doctors appointment is in two days. I am praying for a strong and wonderful heart beat.
I have already thanked God for a healthy child, because I do know that we will be parents one day. Praying that that day comes in 2013.
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."
