Thank you
Wow...I am overwhelmed with all of the prayers, support, and love we have felt over the past few days. I can't tell you enough how grateful I am to everyone that has written notes, emails, and called to send condolences and share your stories with me. I was hesitant to post anything about the pregnancy so soon in the first place, and then when I lost the baby a week later, I felt like I needed to share that as well as hard as that was. God definitely had His hand in all of that though, because I know if I hadn't of shared the news about the pregnancy, I most likely wouldn't have shared the news about the miscarriage. God knew I needed your prayers, to hear your stories, and to feel the love of my family and friends. Thank you again to everyone that took the time to write me a note of encouragement and especially to pray for us. I love you all!

A peace that passes all understanding...
A little over a week ago I shared the news that we were expecting our 2nd. Unfortunately now I am having to share that we lost the baby. We are of course very sad, but we also have complete peace knowing that there is a reason for everything, and that God sees the bigger picture and has a plan for our lives. He is in control and we are using this time to draw closer to Him. One of my friends on Facebook wrote this to me and it is exactly how I feel, "It's amazing how fast you fall in love with the baby within... Rest knowing he or she is in the arms of Jesus and one day you too will have him in your arms as well."
We are extremely grateful for the love, support, and prayers of our family and closest friends. The notes, emails, and calls we have received these past few days have meant more to us than you know.
"There's a peace I've come to know, though my heart and flesh may fail. There's an anchor for my soul, I can say it is well."
