Patience is a Virtue

They (whoever "they" are) say "Good things come to those who wait", I've grown to realize that this is so true. Either that or God likes to keep me at the edge of my seat at all times, leading me to think the worst like nothing is going to work out or I will run out of time. But just when things are boiling down, and I am at the end of my rope, exhausted all of my resources He is there with an answer. It is an extreme test of faith; and I have to admit my faith has come and gone when times got really tough. But with the love, support, and inspiring words of family and friends I was able to regain my faith and not worry so much because I knew I had a great support group and a Heavenly Father who wouldn't allow me to go without. Months ago I didn't think I would have made it to where I am now and have made the progress that I have made. For example I remember being 6 weeks pregnant, scared, confused, nervous, happy, mad, sad, freaked out, overwhelmed, petrified, excited, in disbelief, feeling shocked (and that was just my mood changes in 5 minutes) not thinking I would ever make it to 37 weeks with a big ol' belly, and if somehow, someway I did I did not think I would be here as fast as I got here. I would be lying if I said I couldn't picture myself doing something else, but I am very content with where I am. I am proud of who and how strong I have become, it hasn't been easy by any means but it has most certainly been worth it. A lot of the things I was worried about not working have honestly worked themselves out and just in time. The last thing was an apartment for Mike and I to bring our daughter home to, again I thought nothing was going to work out and that was probably because I wasn't seeing immediate results. But as of this morning we were approved and are ready for move in whenever! With a big thanks to my parents for making it possible, we FINALLY have a place of our own that we can bring baby home to and it feels amazing for that stress just to be lifted clear off my chest. Cutting it a little close... but better late than never!



Even though he doesnt look happy to even be sitting
next to me, I know the love is there. Thank You Daddy!
We butt heads because we are so alike, but you have
always had the best intentions for your kids. Without
your efforts I wouldn't be where I am today.
Love you lil guy, proud of how hard you work to support
your family. I plan to do the same.
