Observation

I made an interesting observation the other day. On my digital camera I have pictures from our beach trip in June, the video of me telling Jared I was pregnant, and pictures of our house the day we closed. No, the observation I made was not that I need to download my pictures, though that probably wouldn't be a bad idea. The observation was how far we had come in a few short months.

When we went to the beach in June, one of the many things that we did was have an intense discussion on what we needed to focus on in terms of financial priorities. We both agreed that the number one and two spot would be to adopt a child or pursue fertility treatments and to buy a house. Our human minds, figured it was either a give or take situation. We could either have a child or buy a house. It was tough...our hearts were screaming, "you want a child," but our heads were telling us a house would be more practical at this time.

Who knew what God had in store. It's funny how we try to write our own story and He makes it so much better! We didn't have to give up or delay either dream any longer than He chose.
