In the beginning there was an idea, you know the ideas where light bulbs glow and faith runs rampant. The idea that life would be simple "when"...and each phase was started by another "when"moment. The first phase was "when I find Mr. Right". Then it was "when I graduate college", "when I find a job", next "when we get married", and finally "WHEN we have children". That last one took us a little longer to "fill" than the others. It was the time when I realized the most that God is in control and that his plan does not happen on my watch. After suffering through miscarriages, painful heartbreaking miscarriages that made me question God's love for me as well as ask if something I wanted so badly would even be possible: then comes my son and then my daughter. Praise God, that was almost 9 years ago and boy has a lot changed. I look back at the photos of my hubby and I PRE-kids and we looked so relaxed and happy and today we looked aged and exhausted! Boy do our dreams have a way of filling us full of joy and draining us of energy at the same time.
I wanted to start this as paying homage to all families who walk the tight rope daily and ask themselves....what are the sweet moments, high points & smiling times that keep us going.
