How great is my God that he gives me peace in such times of trouble. How great is my God that I asked for solidity and compliance in my heart and my thoughts and he made it happen in one day. That he erased all other thoughts, fears and judgments and allowed me to think, feel and follow him properly.
Infertility has been a part of our married lives since the moment we said "I Do".
Realistically it has probably been there for longer than that, we just didn't know it.
For almost 9 years we have lived our lives with this label attached and as often as we tried to bury it, like a vampire or a zombie, it dug itself out of its grave at the most inconvenient times, reminding us that we are failures.
For those who will quickly jump up and say "You are not failures". This we know. However, in times like that, where it seems God is quiet (he's not) and the enemy is loud (SO LOUD!) its hard to remember the truth, but rather believe the lies.
After our appointment earlier this month, after a lot of praying, a lot of crying, a lot of feeling and so much advice we have come to a decision, and feel at peace with it.
We are a family of three.
We are "One and Done".
We are so happy with our lives and finally, FINALLY, after almost 9 years, I'm ripping that label of infertility off my jacket. Actually I'm throwing the whole jacket out and getting a new one. We both are.
We are proud parents to our beautiful little daughter and wouldn't change a thing. We are no longer Infertile. We are parents.
Its so good to be free.
Now to get a puppy.
