Having Fun at the Y


We have been having a good time at the YMCA pool already this year. Jiles has really started swimming well and he loves being there. The cutie in the pink glasses is Brittany. Her brother Tyler and Jiles are the bestest of buddies. They love each other to death and fight like brothers to prove it.
Today was a great day at church and God really spoke to me during the sermon. I have released all control of having another child to him. FINALLY. I have wanted another baby for over 3 years now and with one miscarriage and many times of trying fertility drugs we decided to adopt, but still I was holding on to the anger and bitterness of not getting pregnant. I still struggle with the waiting part of it all and have been holding on to that for so long and even sometimes being jealous of others being pregnant. Today I finally let it all go at the alter and I feel a relief off my back. God's will will be done and if he wants us to raise another little one then we will and be so blessed to do it but if not then we are still blessed. I love my life and my family. I am just thankful that God gave me the opportunity to be a mother to Jiles and hope and pray I will be able to do it again to another little one. Be in prayer for us and our adoption process because if we continue to be in prayer about our desires then hopefully he will answer that prayer. Until then I will be content and thankful, :) Have a great week!!!

Most of the time when we finally let it all go to God He gives us our hearts desire. I am in prayer with you.
