Always on my mind...

When we hand over what we can't handle to the One who can, miracles happen. Keep me free of stress, Lord, and in the best possible place to receive Your help.

We have had in our "original" plans to do IVF through ivfvacation however with all of my planning and figuring I don't think we are going to be able to go that route. I will need to take time off work but I don't think that will be too big of a problem. We wanted Baby Girl to go with us and that is where the extra money is going to come in with the airfare and we will need to find housesitters for our furry babies.

Latley I have really been struggling with my weight since we have moved and do not have our farm anymore I am not as active and I have gained about 15 maybe even 20 pounds and in 6 months that is bad, not to mention I already was overweight. Many times it does not bother me to be over weight because I was active and I didnt (and still dont) care what others think of me. But this is getting to me because when I do the smallest things I get out of breath and I'm tired a lot. Ok, enough about whining about my wt!

I totally understand the weight issue. Right now, I am the heaviest that I have ever been in my life. About 4 years ago, I lost a good bit of weight and then packed it back on plus some more. What a struggle it can be. Never thought that I would have been as heavy as I was when Scott and I got married. We both are trying to watch what we eat and get to the rec center to work out since we bought a year's membership.

You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers as always. :)

What Makes a Mother?

What Makes a Mother?
I thought of you and closed my eyes and prayed to God today
I asked "What makes a Mother?"
And I know I heard him say
"A Mother has a baby"
This we know is true
"But God can you be a Mother,
when your baby is not with you?"
"Yes, you can," He repliedwith confidence in his voice"
I give many women babies,
when they leave is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime,
and others for the day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
but there's no need to stay."
"I just don't understand this God
I want my baby to be here."
He took a deep breath and cleared his throat,
and then I saw the tear."
I wish I could show you what your child is doing today.
If you could see your child's smile,
with all the other children and sayﾅ
"We go to Earth to learn our lessons,
of love and life and fear.
My Mommy loved me oh so much,
I got to come straight here.
I feel so lucky to have a Mom,
who had so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My Mommy set me free.
I miss my Mommy oh so much,
but I visit her every day.
When she goes to sleep,
on her pillow's were I lay
I stroke her hair and
kiss her cheekand
whisper in her ear.
"Mommy don't be sad today,
I'm your baby and I'm here.'"
"So you see my dear sweet ones,
your children are okay.
Your babies are born here in My home,
and this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with Me,
until your lesson's through
and on the day that you come home
they'll be at the gate for you.
So now you see what makes a Mother,
it's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of
right from the very start
Though some on Earth may not realize,
you are a Motheruntil their time is done.
they'll be up here with Me
one dayand know that you are the best one!"
