Loss

I am very sad to post that we "lost" the baby. It seems strange to type the term "lost" seeing that we know exactly where the baby is now. It has been a rough few days, but God has given us a tremendous peace about the situation. We are so thankful for our precious little boy and God keeps reminding us that He is faithful and has a wonderful plan for our family. Physically, I am truly doing fine... I went to the doctor Monday morning and he scheduled a D & C for that afternoon. I spent today recovering and he said I would be fine to return to work on Thursday. He reassured both Trey and I that there was no apparent reason for the miscarriage. David is a true source of joy and laughter for us. He is also a constant reminder that God is so good to us and even the hard times are a part of His plan for us as His children. I keep remembering this verse throughout the day...
"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you, not to harm you. Plans for a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

    Dani and Trey- y'all are amazing and I'm so proud of your strength because things like this are never easy. Yes, God has a plan and you'll realize it when you see the next child in your arms- it will be "meant to be."
