About Me
- Maria
- God has blessed me tremendously with an amazing husband, Doug, and two gorgeous little boys, Gavin and Joey. It has always been a dream of mine to have a large family but God may have other plans. I had a series of 6 consecutive early miscarriages when trying for baby #2. We are currently trying for baby #3 after our 7th miscarriage. I am faithful that God's plan is perfect, even when I am not happy about it. I love comments and meeting new followers so please don't be shy!

Please Pass The Doughnuts...
I have been having a really hard time coming up with anything to write about. I am not feeling overly hopeful. I'm not feeling incredibly inspired by much. I have random thoughts that I think may one day be worthy of being shared but when I try to put words to them, I write a sentence or two and then my mind wanders to something else.
I don't know if it is because I just really thought that I would be pregnant by now. I don't know if maybe I feel unjustified in being down about infertility when others are still waiting for their first baby. It might even have something to do with the fact that to treat my back pain the doctor prescribed steroids that made me so sick that I spent the last 72 hours either throwing up or sleeping. I guess that can really take the creative, positive edge out of the best of us. So, instead of subjecting you to my continued ramblings of a neither here nor there blogger, I'll share with you this guest post I wrote for Arpita @ Up, Down, & Natural back in July.
I really enjoyed writing that post. Now, five months later, I am pretty sure that I am at that same singles bar as a polygamist in search of my third spouse. I am getting used to the funny looks and the eye rolls from those who don't understand me. In fact, my own doctor scolded me. She asked, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy with the two you've got?"
I am so happy with the two I have! But, if you had the worlds best ... oh... let's say... doughnut. Would you say, "Wow that doughnut was so good that I will have one more but never again will I want to enjoy a doughnut that good again. Two is enough for me." I don't know. Maybe some people's tastes change and they crave something different but for me, I want another of those doughnuts! Maybe with a cup of coffee... Mmmmmm
I hope you all are having a great weekend!

I love comments but if you are seeing this, I'm afraid that no one will see your comment. On the blog, I use Disqus commenting and it sometimes takes longer to load. Also, if you ask me a specific question, I am able to respond to those using Disqus. If you ask here, I am unable to reply. But, again, I love to hear from readers so however you comment, I thank you!!
