The facts of Life


The Facts of Life
You take the good,You take the bad,
You take them both and there you have the facts of life.
The facts of life.

Since I have chosen to share all the good on the blog, so too comes the bad. On Sunday I started bleeding, which was later accompanied by some pain and then a lot more bleeding. We went in on Monday morning and were told that we had lost the baby. I am feeling tired and in a lot of pain due to the medicine that they prescribed. Randy and the kids are helping a ton, and I have to say that I am very humbled by all of the love that we have received. Thank you all for your calls and emails and food and flowers and everything else. I know that the Lord's hand is in this. As we told Meg, our baby just wasn't ready and Heavenly Father will give us one when things are ready. Thank you all.

Tracie, I'm so sorry for what you've been through. What a sad and stressful situation - wondering and worrying. One day you'll have a beautiful little baby to match the adorable ones you have now. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love you. This is such a difficult thing to go thru, you'll make it though and be stronger for it. And yes, one day you'll have a darling little baby to add to your already adorable family.
