One Week Later...

Here we are... One week after finding out that we would be sending another sweet baby to heaven way too early.  Over the past week I have had so many people share their own personal stories with me, about their troubles with having kids and many women dealing with the same type of losses.  It certainly happens way more than you would imagine but unfortunately it is very rarely talked about and often looked over.
I have had my moments of sadness of course but also keep reminding myself that CJ and I are so blessed.  And that in Gods time we will be able to experience a growing family.  This week I have indulged in sweet tea, ice cream, and anything chocolate I can get my hands on.  I've got one more pampering idea planned for this weekend (pedicure of course!) and then must get back on track.  Certainly not included in our Dave Ramsey budget but I will make up for it next month. ;-) Even thinking about joining the gym (CJ snickers at this idea) but I know it would be good for me. 
As far as doctors appointments go, I will be having blood work in 6 weeks to do further testing and determine if there is a treatable reason that the miscarriages are happening.  Please pray that they will find something we can easily fix.  Until then, I'm enjoying all the time I can with my handsome husband and so thankful for all of our amazing friends and family.  We can't thank you enough for all the prayers and happy thoughts that have been sent our way.

And just walked in the door to my husband cooking supper :-)

  1. Bethany, the world needs more people like you and CJ, more Christian people. I worry sometimes about having brought our little girl, Lillie, into a world full of hatred, crime and war, but as God says, children are a way of telling the world to go on. You and CJ will have a little one in your lives one day and it will be the most precious thing in the entire world and I know you both will love it will all of your heart. I will pray for you! You are amazing!
