Decidedly Quiet

I know I have not posted lately. I have been decidedly quiet. We have a nasty cold sweeping through the house, and unfortunately- as a stay at home mom, I can't call in sick (though we can sit on the couch and watch cartoons all day;-). The real reason though, is a little tougher. We once again find ourselves in a sad situation. Once again- 12 weeks pregnant, we find we have a "Blighted Ovum". Basically, this means that through what is probably a genetic abnormality, the cells stopped growing around 6 weeks. Before there was a fetal pole or a heartbeat. It is amazing to me how God instills us with instincts that tell us (though we hope) that there is something wrong. We are of course very sad, but very at peace as well. I can already see God's blessings surrounding this. And it is not difficult to look ahead. Last time this happened, if everything had continued, we would never have had Daniel! So I choose to trust God. And personally- I am very thankful I am NOT the one in charge... I would have messed everything up in the first 2.8 seconds:-) So thank you all for the prayers. We are grateful!! We will soon be back to normal posting and I appologize for the delay!
Love
Dawn
