When we were left with more questions, then came an answer. He always has a plan, a time, a purpose even when we doubt or wrestle with intense confusion in our unknowing. Being completely honest, we still feel puzzled by these past nine months; but the one thing we know for sure is that God can be trusted. We trust Him with our toddler on Earth, our baby in Heaven, and the little one growing in my belly. We also have so much to celebrate and be thankful for involving each of our three children. Thank you, Jesus!
But let me start with this details of our most recent little blessing. We have another baby girl growing and due to make her arrival in our arms on December 23, 2018 just in time to celebrate our Savior’s birth and mark the end of this wild year. It’s been quite the process navigating grief and celebration in a strange mix the past few months, but the most overwhelming emotion I feel is immense gratitude. We have gotten to see our littlest girl move around and marvel at all her little growing parts, thanks to a thorough doctor and modern medicine. She already seems to resemble her big sister Abigail in her active nature and long legs! It really brings me to tears to think about all of my girls and their place in this great design. Hallelujah!
Thank you for being a part of this journey with me in the hills and the valleys. Remember that God is never through with us, and His plan is without a doubt better than our own. Please keep us in your prayers if you think to, and I’ll keep telling His story in all the beautiful ways that He can be seen while I’m here. After all, this is all for Him alone, Heaven made Home.

I’ve added you and your little one to my prayer list. I’ve found that sometimes we can’t understand until years later in hindsight, and sometimes we will have to wait until glory. So thankful that we can trust in His goodness when we don’t understand.
