October 8th

In the funny way that God works, exactly one year from the time we found out we were pregnant last time, we got a positive result. One year..give or take an hour. I'm super nervous and leery about getting excited. All the memories of Gracie flooded back in and sometimes it's so overwhelming. I know that this time around, my eyes are little more open to the complaining. I'm not taking anything for granted. Am I getting sick? I sure am. Am I super tired? I sure am. But I also remember, after losing Grace, that I would have done anything to have those "irritations" again, if it meant I could have Grace. Here it is. God is giving us a mulligan, a second chance. How will I use this to praise God? God is good even when we're not, even when we don't understand, even when we stray. God is good.
