1 Year Mark...

So I wrote this on April 17th and have thought and prayed about whether or not I should post it or not. I know that I am not the only woman who feels these things, who has ever been in this position and I am not hiding it anymore.

The 17th of April is a day that the hubs and I will always remember.... a day that will live with us forever... it was the day that infertility took everything from us. It was a day that we looked to our family for love and support but received a 'it'll be fine' mentality... it was a day that we didn't like. It's a day that lives in infamy with us.

This year though it was a day for us to reflect on where we have come from in a years time. The past year has been a ride to say the least... The hubs and I were able to take the day and talk about things... where we are, where we want to be, what our dreams are, what our hopes are.... and OH how they have changed.

People don't understand it but when infertility invades your world. Your view of happiness changes. Your view of joy is completely different. Life is completely different. One day changed everything for us. Our dreams and hopes have changed. Our marriage has changed. We are stronger, more resilient and much more of a team than we have ever been.

One year.... that's how long it has been since our prayers of 'what if Lord?' were answered. Now we wait. We don't know how long until our prayer of our child(ren) coming into our lives will be. We know that they will be answered. It has been a year that we will never forget. It is 365 days that we will tell our child(ren) all about one day.

Friends, family and those we don't know, we ask for your prayers... pray that when it is God's will to expand our family the hubs and I will be at peace and know the plans that lie ahead of us!


Baby B, we are waiting for you. We love you! We talk about you often. We pray for you constantly. You are incredibly loved. 
Love you - Mama & Daddy!
