Wings

But those who hope in the LORD

will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint.

Isaiah 40:31

 

This verse has helped me through SO many things in my life.

My parents divorce, high school, relationships, marriage, and my 3 miscarriages.

It is with my hope in Christ that I have been able to be comforted.

I have been surrounded with so many great friends and family members.

Just a few shout outs if I may...

On the morning of my miscarriage I had a friend offer to come with me to watch my son.

I had her come in to the ultrasound room with me. She was there when the ultrasound tech said

there was no heartbeat. When we left the U/S room, she cried with me. She stayed with me through my doctors appointment and she has continued to be so amazing. I am so thankful for you Krystle!

My mom~ I could write a book about how I love you. Thank you Thank you Thank you, for everything you are, everything you do and for everything you have taught me. I love you so much.

I am going on a cruise in July for my mom's 50th birthday.

We are SO excited!

I was really excited to be pregnant as that was a great excuse to be chubby.

Well now, I have no excuse.

Yesterday I was determined to work out!

And I wanted to work out hard.

I think I wanted to release some of my emotions.

And what better way than through excercise.

Some people hit the bottle.

I hit the pavement.

I met up with my sister and we power-walked 2 miles! (go us!)

Then we did about 15 minutes of the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred.

I say 15 minutes not because I pooped out, but because my son threw an enormous fit that I wasn't paying attention to him.

I also packed away ALL of my maternity clothes.

I will admit I was still wearing some on my fat days.

Now I have no excuses but to squeeze into my REAL jeans.

And start working on my muffin top.

I am determined!

I also want my body to be a more healthy dwelling for my next baby.

So I am throwing in all my anger, frustration, dedication, strongwill, and hope...

into being more fit and healthy.

So here's to a more healthy us!

There are days where I feel his love wrap around me and I feel strong.

There are days where I feel lonely and weak.
