Most of you know already by now that I had a miscarriage last week. Just shy of three months of my pregnancy and there were signs of trouble. A visit to the doctor where we had 2 ultrasounds and an exam confirmed our fears. There was no heartbeat. I lost the baby just an hour or so after the doctor visit. Obviously we are shocked and saddened by this turn of events but we trust the Lord in His faithfulness to give us the strength to bear it. I have never before felt His presence as strongly as that day and the days that followed. Jason has been supportive and wonderful through all of this. I am so greatful to have Levi and the joy he brings us every day. I also want to thank all of our friends and family who have blessed us with cards, e-mails, phone calls and hugs. It means a lot to us to be so loved and cared for by all of you. I am healing although I'm sure that my heart will take longer than my body to mend. My heart goes out to all women who have had to go through this. It is no easy thing to get over. I truly believe that God has more children in mind for us (whether from my own womb or not is up to Him) I just need to be patient and lean on Him. To trust His wisdom more than mine. Please keep us in your prayers. I am so thankful that my parents where here with us during this hard time and that Jason was able to stay with me for 4 days to help me with Levi and just be there to listen.
I am truly blessed by my family and my friends and most of all by my faith in our heavenly Father.
