Good Things

So yesterday not such a great day. I just had a really hard time shaking off this depressed feeling. The doctor told me thats to be expected. Don't worry, the Dr. gave me a small dose of something to just help me through this time.

So I've been struggling with finding joy in anything I do. Things that would be pleasant to me just seem mundane and unenjoyable. Did I mention this blog was going to be a bit transparent... well I'm saying again (smile)

I'll be honest here, I don't feel like breaking out of this. I want to go home crawl in bed. And just lay there.  However, I AM making my self GO. I'm trying different things to give me some joy. I work on my house, go for a walk out side, cuddle with Abby, and spend time with Josh. Which is hard during the week. I want to spend all my time with him, but thats not realistic. I pray continuously through the day. Through this I've noticed a change in my personal relationship with Christ... it seems more intimate then it ever has before. There are no fake prayers, no pharisee prayers. I pray in desperation, to be comforted, sometimes just pour out my heart. Then there are times when I just listen and let God comfort me.

I've decided to start looking forward to things in the future. For Instance I signed up today with a HUGE gift exchange between bloggers! I can't wait!!




I'm also going to start talking with Josh about what we are going to do when he goes on vacation for a week... We can't afford to go to the beach so... We shall see. But today I am feeling better. 

But I'm trying to go through this... I told Josh yesterday that I was so frustrated because I couldn't go over, around, or under.. I have to go straight through this grief and its so hard. 

I'm never alone. I know God is with me. 

So until tomorrow! 

Happy Blogging!

    Got a great idea for your vacation! Mega bus! Go to Washington!! Stay a night or two at a hotel, eat cheap, cause you gotta eat at home anyway! You'll love it I promise! And the best thing is you only gotta pay for two seats cause Jesus rides for FREE. He'll be right there with ya! Love you!
    (just to see if you like to ride a mega bus, go on a real short trip first, like to Atlanta for the weekend)

    I hope you're able to get through this. I can't imagine what you're dealing with. I find when I'm struggling with my stuff, my prayers are a lot more passionate and desperate leaving me feeling closer to God. Funny how that is. but I love it.

    Hope you're able to find out what you can do for the vaca

One year ago today my life changed

One year ago today a new season in my life was manifested. One year ago this morning around 2am we lost our precious baby. Hope would be around 4 months right now had she been meant to stay on this earth. Even though my heart is broken I feel Gods presence with me today, so strong. Through many talks and prayers with my God, I made it through these last few days without being devastated. Through my obiedance I believe God gave more healing to my heart. Sunday morning was extremely difficult. But I received so much support. Physically, mentally, and spiritually. My sweet friends and family held me hand, rubbed my back, gave me hugs as I stood for the first time as a mom on the stage with the rest of the moms. I can not even begin to describe how much they helped. I know without their support and God's supernatural strength I wouldn't have made it through. As I left service I felt a little lighter, a little bit of that dark grief left. Last night was our women...

Never dreamed...

Starting last Monday this week was a complete roller coaster. Not sure if I could ever explain to anyone how painful it has been. I've struggled with if I should write about my experience. To write about something so close to you can make you seem so vulnerable. Writing has always helped me. I've kept a journal since I was nine. I've always been very analytical with my feelings and things going on around me. Which is why I have a journal, a prayer journal, and a blog :) Crazy, I know. I usually don't have much time to write in any of them, but the blog. I wonder how many women suffer silently because of what this one even does to us emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I don't want to suffer alone. I needed to know that what I'm feeling is normal. Even though people can be very sympathetic, some seem like it is no big deal. It was a big deal. And every second with the Lords help I'm making it. Last Monday night I had a miscarriage. Even as I type ...

I am the mom not you

Through out my life there have been many times where unsolicited advice has been overwhelming, frustrat ing ,and hurtful. There has been three times that it was all the three above. 1. When I got married 2. When I had a miscarriage 3. When I had Ethan A few months ago I asked mothers to send me things that pertained to mothering their children. Some responses were heartbreaking and made me m ad to be honest . Some were your typical insensitive things that people say. I started writing this post to give examples, but I could not continue because honestly I was getting too angry. Some of the moms I have talked to have really suffered in silence by what some others have called "help" or just saying their opinions because they "care". My heart hurts so bad for these women.  I am a pretty bold person. I have had my moments where I have had to kindly put some one in their place. I also have had to be firm. Mothers need to feel empowered! These...
