"Let there be peace down in your soul, for the things of this world we can't control"
-Kristy Lee, Baby of Mine
The title of our blog comes from the Kristy Lee's song Baby of Mine. For those of you who have followed our journey over these years, you know how moving that line is for us. I am petrified to start this blog because I have yet to find that peace in my soul. As I logged in to blogger, I found my blog from our first failed adoption and my heart stopped. I do not know if I can handle having another blog and no baby. However, I promised my friends dealing with infertility that I would keep all my pregnancy posts off facebook and I intend to keep that promise (even though I have failed so far, sorry about that). So I am finally starting this blog and hoping that it is filled with more joy than sorry.

Kate & Alisha,
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, I just wanted you to know that I used to struggle with posting pregnancy updates on Facebook. At the beginning of my last pregnancy, I didn't post any good news. I had too many family members and close friends struggling with having babies (in all of the "having" forms), and I didn't want to seem like I was smearing it in their faces. But I finally started to feel bad for my baby. We believe EVERY life needs to be celebrated. And I had some very reassuring conversations with those people who were struggling. I admire your love and concern for your friends. But I know that anyone who loves you will be glad to hear good news and are happy to know things are going well even though it might be painful. Don't be afraid to post the occasional update on FB. ;) I look forward to many more updates!
