You all make me Smile!

You all are too wonderful! I think I know all of the best people in the world. I have more support and love than I ever even knew. I have learned so much from this experience and even though it is hard I feel my Saviors love for me even more. It has helped me to grow closer to him. Hugs to everyone. You all make me smile!

Trials only make us stronger!

I know I should have put this up a long time ago but we have been out of town with no internet at all. I thought we would be able to get it at some point during our long trip but we were never able to.
I want to thank all for the wonderful congrats on our little one but I also need to tell you on June 23rd I was having some complications and went in for another ultrasound and we found that there was no heartbeat. I should have been between ten and eleven weeks but was only still at six weeks and one day just like in the first ultrasound. So my pregnancy had not been progressing since then.  I am thankful to have been able to see the little heartbeat and I am so privileged to have been so close to this little spirit even if for only a short while. I am excited to one day meet this sweet spirit that was so needed on the other side. I send my love out to those who have helped and talked me through this and those who have been through it themselves. It was harder than I thought it would be. The hardest part was to tell the kids. We took them out to ice cream and told them. Valencia surprised me, she said "Mom Heavenly Father has a plan and we will have another baby when he is ready. " Vincent was very sad and still asks me if there is a baby in my tummy yet almost daily, he tells me how he really wants a baby brother or sister. Sometimes it makes me laugh because of his innocence and other times it hits me and I really want one too. I am so thankful for the strong faith of my children and the strength they give me when mine is down. We have to be thankful for our trials, they make us stronger.
