2001, 2002 and 2005 all consisted of pregnancy losses for G and I. In 2007, we were blessed with Buddy. Everytime I look at him, I am incredibly thankful that he has been given to us. Don't get me wrong ... there are moments that I wish my patience exceeded his stubbornness, or gentleness overshadow my frustrations! But despite the challenges mothering can bring, and the desperate times during our losses, I am so overwhelmed with the sovereignty of God. The highlighted verse below has rung incredibly true to me over the past couple days. Now to apply and trust the rest of this passage!!
Psalm 119:73-77
With your very own hands you formed me;
now breathe your wisdom over me so I can understand you.
When they see me waiting, expecting your Word, those who fear you will take heart and be glad.
I can see now, God, that your decisions are right;
your testing has taught me what's true and right.
Oh, love me—and right now!—hold me tight!
just the way you promised.
Now comfort me so I can live, really live;
your revelation is the tune I dance to.

There is no love like that love you have for your children. He is beautiful, Alex, and his shiny heart shows God's faithfulness!
