I feel like such a horrible person because I am happy for my friends who are pregnant, but at the same time, sad and waiting for my baby to come. It is hard to "put on the front" as Kelly said. And honestly, I think God understands and wants us to just be real. (Think about when Hannah bared her soul to God and she was so upset that everyone thought she was drunk...except God. He met her there and gave her peace.) Maybe not sobbing and crying at every shower, but I DO think we are free to be honest when things like that are hard for us.<BR/>I am praying so hard for you and your miracle. God has a plan, and it is the best. Not just good, the BEST.<BR/>You can vent to me anytime!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274828412033940675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339709389431930928.post-70787765937453606702008-08-04T18:37:00.000-05:002008-08-04T18:37:00.000-05:00Julie, I am praying for you and am so sorry that y...Julie, I am praying for you and am so sorry that you had a rough weekend. I cannot begin to know what you are going through, but I know that God is going to give you more than you can ever imagine! I also know that even though we hold that promise in our hearts, it doesn't always take away the sting away in our moments of despair. I pray God will draw you close to him in those moments and help make them few and far between. <BR/><BR/>I am thinking of you and praying for you!

Just a few months after my first miscarriage, I help give a baby shower for an unmarried family member who was having twins. It was the hardest thing, and we went through another loss before we held our first daughter. And YES! My emotions were all over the place. I held it together (sort of) until I got into my car and then I cried all the way home. <BR/><BR/>I'm praying for you and your husband.<BR/><BR/>Anticipating Him with you!<BR/>steph.ocean mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08420605508420197677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339709389431930928.post-46859132749708097722008-08-04T15:23:00.000-05:002008-08-04T15:23:00.000-05:00Ditto on what Heather said...you could have called...Ditto on what Heather said...you could have called any of us at anytime ;)!!!<BR/><BR/>I completely understand where you are coming from!

I can't tell you how many times I nearly broke down in Wal-Mart when it seemed like all I could run into were pregnant women and babies. You know I'm the shower queen and sometimes I had to put on a really brave front to go to all of those showers and smile when it was sooo hard. <BR/>I want so badly for you to experience the joy of being a mother and I KNOW it will be your turn soo and you will get to have a wonderful shower and I am going to get you all kinds of cute things! Your faith and kindness always show through and I know it's hard to be discouraged. <BR/>Know that I am lifting you up EVERY day!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02962409524106496122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339709389431930928.post-77041639205211955292008-08-04T13:40:00.000-05:002008-08-04T13:40:00.000-05:00Julie, I know the hurt and feel it myself too...I ...Julie, I know the hurt and feel it myself too...I am so sorry that this weekend was hard.
