Today is my D-Day. Today, had my pregnancy gone as hoped I would have been 40 weeks. Maybe I would have already had a baby right now? Maybe I would be huge and uncomfortable wishing desperately that labor would begin and doing everything that I could possibly imagine to get it to start? Today there are lots of "maybe's" and "what-if's" and still the old "why me, why anyone?" I think it was appropriate that I announced our foster parenting plans on our family blog today and it also helps that today is sunny and warm in the middle of February; a day that makes me think of the coming Spring and life and renewal.
I think today might be a good day to get out and spend a lot of time enjoying the beautiful moments and then tomorrow life will continue as usual, the cold winter weather will resume, and I will look forward to a future which is not what it could have been.
I'm thinking of and praying for you today, Carrie. <3

ReplyDeleteI love you sister!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been through this, so I don't really know, but I can see how D-day would be hard. I hope fostering works out. x
ReplyDeleteIt's so important to acknowledge days like today and I'm thankful you let us know so we can send love out to you. And I am so excited that you and Andrew will be fostering. I have worked with kids in foster care and they just need so much love and nurturing and you are the perfect people to do it! You will be blessed as you bless them!
