I have wanted to document our lives in some way as they seem to be passing as quickly as "they" always said it would. So, I am trying to catch up with the times and here I am blogging!
One of my goals is to share the "days of our lives" so to speak. To say out loud...the good and the bad. The joys and tears we feel. Another reason I want to document our lives is for our daughter. Since she has been "born in our hearts" I don't have the ordinary documentation of the pregnancy, like I had with the boys. But my heart certainly feels very pregnant with our love for her. She will be coming to us in the next year and while there is much that is unknown, we trust that she will be brought into our lives just as God intends in uniting us! We remind ourselves of this when we feel frustrated that we have very little control in the matter. But really, in life how much can we control? It is a good lesson in patience and I know it she is worth waiting for.
So, here I set off on sharing with friends and family, and maybe even some unknown friends out there in cyberspace, what our family is living and feeling today..March 25, 2008.
