I hope it doesn't seem like I'm being insensitive to it all...we've cried ALOT. Obviously, we wish we could have had that baby. But God has been so kind to show us His perspective on it and that's where the peace comes in. John 8:32 "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." So even today...Mother's Day...I'm free from sadness or depression. I have peace and joy over the goodness of my King!

Peace
It's been a very unusual Mother's Day for me... I mourn the fact that death and sickness happen in this life...which no one can escape, and that we're walking through a personal example of that...But by God's grace and mercy, I've been able to separate that, from the fact that our 4th baby is with the Creator of heaven and earth right now...and only for a while we'll be apart, but one day we'll be together again. What else in this life can give a person peace of mind and hope like that?? If you truly believe, then there is peace! God is so gracious and kind to walk through difficulty with us!
