As many of you know, we had a miscarriage in September - September 9th to be exact - with an estimated delivery date of March 5th.
We are pregnant again, and due on September 12!!! Isn't that amazing?!?! Also, yesterday, March 5th, I had a doctors appointment. We heard the heartbeat that day, with the Doppler!!! I know now that the baby is growing, developing, and getting stronger just as it's supposed to!
What I think is so amazing, is that these dates could have been dates with memories of sadness and loss. I'll never forget the loss and the pain we went through losing that pregnancy, it will forever be a part of my life. But, now instead of those dates being surrounded with sadness, they will be days of life, renewing, and joy!!!
It wasn't easy to go through the miscarriage, but the closeness I experienced with God is priceless! I am so thankful for what I learned and how God revealed Himself to me during that storm! I would never want to give it up.
And He is so gracious, loving, and kind, to bless us with a baby, and adding joy. A joy that surpasses all understanding!!!
Saturday marks the beginning of my second trimester. It is such a blessing to walk with God and follow Him no matter how difficult, hard, or painful it may be, because there is always something more - something greater is yet to come when we place our confidence in God!
Blessings!!!
