Anniversaries

I have found that some anniversaries are worth celebrating and others aren't. 2006, like the past five years have come with anniversaries. In March, Ken and I celebrated five years together; in May we celebrated four years of marital bliss (I really mean that); and now in June, we celebrate five months of TTC. I believe the number is more like eight months since we did try some the last three months of 2005, but we leave those off since we were not real serious at the time.

Five months does not seem like a long time in the scheme of all that is going on. The doctors say try six months and then get back with them if nothing has happened. So today, I praise God that it has only been five months, although it just seems like it has been a LOT longer. But, I am now realizing that every day that passes is a day closer to me being a mother and Ken being a daddy.

Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40: 31-32
