It was a hard weekend for me. I was the one month anniversary of our loss. My cycle returned, as it should, except that it shouldn’t. I should have been 15 weeks along tomorrow, except that I’m not. Ultimately, I know I’m okay, I know the Lord is in control, and I know He’s faithful, no matter what, but right now I’m still sad, still missing being pregnant.
Turning my eyes, my heart, my mind towards the many things I have to be thankful for has been such a blessing through this time. It’s always a blessing, to thank Him, but even more so in a time of grief. Thanking Him, gets my eyes off myself, if even for a moment. May I have more of those moments each day!
