Life

I read a blog today that brought tears to my eyes. An old roommate of mine from CCC has a blog and it wasn't until today that I found it. I had known for a few months that she was expecting and hadn't seen anything recently regarding it. I went onto her blog and found out why. She gave birth to her baby boy about two months ago (he was due yesterday). He was stillborn and is now with Jesus. I read through her blog about the struggles that she is facing and it broke my heart for her. I am so blessed to have a healthy, happy baby girl that is about to turn 1 year old on Friday. I know God has a plan for everything that happens in our lives...it is just hard to see that plan sometimes. About a month ago Doug accepted a job offer at his current job for our family to move to Dallas. We felt like God was leading us in that direction but we know it is going to be super hard to leave all of my family behind. Well, last week I lost my job and Texas became an even bigger blessing for us. God knew that in the long run we really need this move to TX.
Well, I wrote all this basically just to say how thankful I am for my baby and my husband and my family. God has blessed me with an incredible life and even though I fail to thank Him for it as often as I should He still blesses me everyday.
