It never seems to happen that way, but I have found that his plan and timeline are always so much better than mine.<br /><br />You wouldn't know it by looking at our family now but at one time we were right where you and Devin are. It is tough to be in the moment, but in time you will have clarity and understanding along with a great peace and graditude for the Lords plan for your little family!<br />Lots of Love and Hang in there!<br /><br />Char :)ccrippenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16711487919894849635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490077640453169368.post-68935927829666105382010-01-08T16:34:20.136-07:002010-01-08T16:34:20.136-07:00Hang in there my dear!

Dawes talked to my hubs at Roundtable last night. She told him what was going on. <br /><br />I am so sorry for your loss. I am sorry it has been a struggle for you to add to your family. {{{hugs}}}<br /><br />When we talked a few nights ago, I had no idea why I was telling you everything that has happened to us over the past year. It isn't something I go broadcasting to everyone. I had no idea this was happening to you, and I am so sorry if I made it worse for you.<br /><br />I left something on your front door this morning. It helped me out a lot!<br /><br />Let me know if you need anything!<br /><br />{{{hugs}}}<br />Natalie O.Nathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16143507972848489364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490077640453169368.post-14116685393594556142010-01-07T22:43:29.353-07:002010-01-07T22:43:29.353-07:00Devin and Melissa,

Having had my own struggles with having children, I know that it is hard to decide to either be silent with what's going on in your life and be judged for not having kids right away (or a big gap between kids) or share the intimate details of your life and get an on-slaught of advice from people, who mean well, but never have the answers. I'm not going to give advice, because you don't need it. But you are not alone! I am praying for you.bhallewellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14132123480125863364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490077640453169368.post-15277260804792025682010-01-06T20:08:28.623-07:002010-01-06T20:08:28.623-07:00Melissa-
