It’s Been Six Years Since Our Infertility Confirmation
On one hand, we’ve moved on and established other areas of our lives that we had put on hold. We’re enjoying the quietness of the nights to sleep and our mornings with the Lord. We appreciate the freedom to dedicate our time to work, our church, family, friends, and each other. We’re blessed with our sweet fur-baby, Mac. On the other hand, nothing has changed. We were without children at the start of our marriage and we still are today. Our family remains two. Or has it?

The time when you are solely reliant on God to give you direction in how to proceed. And it’s in this season where the conflicts in these marriages can really surface.
