Is this really happening???

I kept asking my husband this yesterday. Is this really happening right now?

We have been married 5 years and you don't need to know the details but it has taken us a long long long time to get here. It has finally happened...we are pregnant! Just typing that now doesn't even feel real. I kept saying it out loud to him yesterday trying to get it to register but it still feels unreal.

I will admit that I have doubted God. I have questioned his timing and his methods. I have felt forgotten and betrayed. We all feel these things but few admit them. Now that we are (newly) on the other side of the journey...I still remember those days. The hardest days have already started to fade...as we look ahead to a wonderful and exciting future.

I am cautiously excited...we still have a long way to go. I am only 4 weeks a long but I am hopeful and will continue to be because my hope comes from above. I ran out of my own hope and strength a long time ago!

All the waiting....here we are. Pregnant today.
