About Me

My photo
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!

I Can't Stop





It is hard to believe that I am still at this!  I am really confident that God has another child for us so I can't stop trying yet.

Today was another gorgeous day and I couldn't bear to stay in.  Since my temperature hit rock bottom today and I am jsut sitting around waiting for my period, I decided that I should celebrate.  I loaded the kids into the truck, opened the sunroof, and drove 15 miles (one way) to get Starbucks.  Then, I was easily persuaded by Gavin to pick up Taco Bell for lunch.  I mean, if I am going to get good 'ol Aunt Flo, I may as well have some digestive upset provided by some tacos and fire sauce!

Then, as I was feeling the warm sun on my arms and face, I started thinking about how much I wish I had enough time to have a large family.  A lot of it has to do with wanting to have enough kids around that when I am old and gray(er), I will have children and grandchildren to keep me feeling lively.  Then, just like a lightening strike, I had an epiphany.

God is giving me a huge family for when I am in Heaven.  I may have 2 (or hopefully 3 or 4) kids on Earth, but when my day comes to meet Jesus, I will have 7 children ready to call me mama while my Earthly children live out long, healthy, and productive lives.  God really is so good to me.
