It started on Halloween with all of
those cute pictures of everyone's children in costumes. I wasn't expecting
Halloween to make me sad, it completely caught me off guard. Seeing those
pictures made me immediately think about how I don't have a child to dress up
and post pictures of. I shrugged it off and moved on because November was busy,
and I was able to stay distracted. Things have quieted down, and Thanksgiving
is here with Christmas soon to follow.
It is so easy to focus on the negative
things. To think about how there is no extra stocking this year
or "baby's first Christmas" ornaments. In an attempt to think
about the positive instead, I think back to last year. At least we won't be
sneaking away to give me those horrible injections while visiting family, and
we won't be faced with a negative pregnancy test on Christmas Day again this
year. Except, those things aren't exactly positive either.
Instead we have decided to focus on
what we have now, and what matters. We are extremely blessed and we get to
spend time with both families this year! That is definitely a positive. We are
going to make the most of our circumstances and enjoy this holiday season as a
couple. We are choosing to be happy now while we wait for what we want rather
than insisting that we can't be happy until we get it.
We are so thankful for all of your
prayers and support. We know it is through your prayers that we are able to
find peace while we wait to meet the baby God has for us.
We look forward to seeing all of your holiday family pictures! Here is ours.
