I had no idea that 2 months later I would see the two pink lines and less than one year later my arms would no longer be empty!!!! She is the joy of my life, look at her!
Some days when I feel really discouraged and heartbroken I look at Lyla and I am reminded that my prayers from today will also be answered in due time. One day I will look at my life and be reminded of the many many wishes written in sand that at the time seemed so distant and so impossible but just when I thought I couldn't wait any longer... may wait will be over !
If you feel discouraged today like I do. Look at something or somebody that reminds you that dreams do come true and that prayers are answered... sometimes not necessarily the way you have imagined or at the time you want it but eventually we will find a place of contentment or we might even be surprised with something that we could not even have imagined. BEYOND OUR WILDEST DREAMS!! Today I am grateful for what I have and hopeful for all the things I still dream of!
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29 ; 11-13

That's so true and a good reminder. Our timeline isn't always God's timeline.
It's great that you've found encouragement today. It's true - we never know when the sun is going to break through the clouds.

What a great outlook on life - I should be thankful for what I DO have and not sad for what I don't. She is so darn cute...we must meet. Maybe we'll come up to KC to see the big tree and do some shopping in the next few months...
What a profound picture of what you wrote in the sand! So happy for you that you have her during all the uncertainty! Any updates on the job front with her daddy?
