Moving Blessing!
Just wanted to share this really quickly. God is teaching me a ton through us moving houses. So we officially moved this weekend, and it really was incredible the amount of help we had throughout the weekend. God has blessed us way more than we deserve with the community/family around us. I will be honest, it is really hard for me not to be able to pick up boxes and be doing lots of the moving, but there was no need everyone was pitching in and doing everything. I was overwhelmed. Also, through the weekend, I have been realizing how God has us exactly where he wants us to be, in our neighborhood, on our street, in our house, and all we have to do is be obedient. My confession is I definitely can be a “doer” and having people helping so much and also just realizing there is no need to stress, I have been very at ease and enjoying this new little step in the journey!!

“Newness”
Eeks…sorry it has been almost a month since I have posted anything! We have been in between houses for about a month now, living with our friend Denise. She has been so great to let us stay at her place until our house is ready! But the big day is Friday, we will be closing on our house this friday!! Yippee, we are very excited. Looking forward to this new little stage of life. It has been a neat time for Allen and I to really grow closer and closer together making bigger decisions together and really just gettting excited about things together. We pray our new house will be a place God has designed to welcome people around us in to and a place for new things to start. Please come visit us!
Everything is going well with baby Zoe, now closer to 6 1/2 months, it is really starting to go by fast. Everytime she moves is such a huge encouragement! Just trying to rest a good bit, and trying to prepare my heart for the changes ahead. I am very very excited…especially as each week passes and gets closer to her being here.
I have been reflecting some lately and seeing different ways my heart was a year ago and now, and what God has been revealing and teaching me. There has been conversations with other moms that have lost babies that I find them saying things that I said and seeing what it looks like to talk and encourage at this point verses in the middle of grief. I feel like God is showing me a whole different side of hope and what that looks like. The way he shows truth over and over again keeps me going. There are still times of question of why we lost six children but He shows where He is getting glory through it all, and lives are changed. So thankful for that!
