Please Pray for Us: Our hearts are hurting.
We were 11 weeks pregnant with our 2nd baby. We got to see his or her little heartbeat twice, but after some complications, we went in for our 3rd sonogram and the baby had no heartbeat. We desperately need your prayers as this is such an overwhelming time in our lives in many ways. We are leaning on the Lord and each other and our sweet family and friends. We know the Lord is going to provide for us and that He is protecting us, but the pain is still so harsh and scathing. My womb feels so empty and so does my heart. We pray that our little one knows how much we love him or her, and we pray that the Lord will just hold him or her close to His heart. I miss our baby and long to have him back inside of me growing, but I also know the Lord took the baby for a reason. I have moments of peace and deep understanding followed by moments of deep despair, and I am so thankful for my sweet husband who comforts me through it all. We are also thankful for all of your prayers, support, love, and the meals. We ask that you pray for healing in our hearts, and also that my physical pain would subside because it is pretty debilitating right now and it is a constant reminder of the emotional pain. We love you and are thankful for all of you.

Pictures Of Me.

"Hope" is the thing with feathers—
That perches in the soul—
And sings the tune without the words—
And never stops—at all—
And sweetest—in the Gale—is heard—
And sore must be the storm—
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm—
I've heard it in the chillest land—
And on the strangest Sea—
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb—of Me.
Thank you for whoever left this for us. This is one of my favorite poems for SO many reasons. Someone knows I'm a recovering English teacher :) It means a lot you would take the time to send me something like this! We do have hope, and it grows more and more each day.
