So Blessed....

So we found out some horrible news this afternoon.  One of our friends who was pregnant told us that she had another miscarriage.  My heart sank!  She had found out she was pregnant about 2 weeks before I did and miscarried about a week later, and now miscarried a second time. I feel so guilty that we had it so easy.  I mean yes it did take us almost 10 months, but we still got pregnant. Yes, I was completely and totally miserable the first 4 months from being sick, but I was still pregnant. Yes, my c-section started out a little rough, but we had a beautiful, healthy baby boy.  We've had friends who have had several miscarriages and then some who have yet to be pregnant and I realize just how blessed we truely are.  I pray everyday for those longing for a family that I now have.  I just can't understand why they have to go through everything that they're going through.  It truely breaks my heart.  So please pray a short prayer for our close friend that she may find peace and that this will be the last time she's has to go through this and that this time next year they'll be able to hold a sweet baby of their own.

Maybe share a verse with her that keeps me hopeful, even through the darkest days!

Mark 11:24 (King James Version)

24Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

So sad to hear about your friends. One of my husbands cousins had a miscarriage in november. I think they had found out about a week or 2 before the miscarriage. It's sad because my brother-in-law is having a baby in january and the cousin that miscarried, her brother is having a baby in january too. I feel for your friend. I hope they find out what might be causing the loss so they can have a baby.

Resolutions....

Ok... so with the new year comes new year resolutions. I have to say the past couple of years I haven't really made any just hoped that the next year would be better than the last. I thought this year I'd try it again... except I'm calling them my goals for this year.... Here goes... Become A Better Christian.... I've really been slacking a lot in this area. When I became pregnant with Zane my life hit a turning point and all I wanted was to become a better Christian for my baby, I want to set the best example that I possibly can. I've gotten better but still could use a lot of improvement. I've had a potty mouth since high school and it's most certainly something that I'm not proud of. I've been working steadily on dropping it... but it really is something so hard to brake. I want to read the Bible more.... and not just read it but apply it. Being Positive... I need to learn to be more positive with everything. I want to always see the bright...
