Learning so much--

Sorry it has been so long since my last blog post. I will get more consistent eventually. This week I have been learning that it is important to look for the small things to be thankful for amongst the times that are hard. 
Josh and I have been waiting to start our home study process now for 5 weeks and it is hard. I feel that this part has been harder than I thought because we can't do anything until we hear from our agency and it has been hard just sitting and doing nothing. This last week has been especially hard as I have been reflecting on what the process may look like for us. I knew it would be a long haul but being in the process now it has hit home and I have realized that this is going to take much more patience and self-reminders to be thankful for all the blessings I have around me.
 I look forward to holding my child, wiping away their tears, giving them big bear hugs, waking up with a smile and knowing I am a mom, even waking up in the night, being there when they are sick. I can NOT wait to have all of this with my own child and I just have to learn that there is no set time line for us and I have to be okay with that! Someday I will get to hold my child and until that day I will continue to pray for them wherever they are, if they are born or still unborn I have been praying for my child since the beginning! It's not easy but it will make a difference!

Sorry for the ramblings but I just wanted to share what has been on my heart and mind a lot this last week! Thanks for reading!
