A new season.

I always have loved to write and for a couple of years now, I have had felt suppressed and not have been able to write. I know God is allowing me in this new season of my life to start writing again and I am super excited about it. Since having my baby girl in March 2010, she has brought a new joy, a new light, a new outlook into my life. Daily I have to die to my own selfish ways in order to be the mother that God has called me to be for my daughter.


I have been a married woman now for three years. There has been up's and down's, happiness and sadness, laughter and tears, but the one constant that has been in our lives has been God being in the center of it all. No matter what we have been through, He has never left us. We had been trying to conceive for three years. After seeing a specialist, we were told that neither of us can have children. I have two step sons, a 23 year old and a 4 year old.The doctor said that the only way that we might have a chance of having children was to do Invitro Fertilization. I felt in my heart that God had other plans for us. A couple of months later came the promise. God told me that He was going to give me a little girl and a little boy. That is all I needed. A year later my husband and I volunteered to go to Iraq, after a month of being gone in training, I found out that I was already 8 weeks pregnant! It was hard to swallow being that my husband still had to go forward. I felt torn with being pregnant something I had been praying for persistently and my husband, my best friend leaving off to war....

After being sent back home, I was scared. I new nothing about nothing about being pregnant. We had given up our home and sold our car. I had to start from scratch. The only thing that kept me was God. I knew that if He had blessed my womb and entrusted me with this gift that He was not going to leave me or forsake me. He gave me the strength to go on through this pregnancy just me and Him.

Stay tuned to find out how my journey through pregnancy went.... Be blessed!
