THIS is why I get upset when I hear women complain! When things are going relatively well with us, we find it easy to complain about little, trivial annoyances... never thinking that close at hand may be someone who is battling a serious hurt. I hope that you were encouraged, and that the Lord will bless you with another baby in His perfect timing!!!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05180259003768992621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-402596940306323896.post-20547912571051086902012-06-29T07:53:37.950-04:002012-06-29T07:53:37.950-04:00Thanks for stopping over!

We have been trying for years and years to have another one, with our daughter begging since she was literally 2 for a sibling. She is now 8 and a month ago we lost our little girl at 17 weeks. It is so awful and annoying and gut-wrenching to hear women complain about all the things you mentioned. I just want to scream that I will take their loads gladly! Thank you for your post!! I haven't read your story yet but I will pray for you & your family to be fruitful and multiply!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199380657884759780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-402596940306323896.post-30923491102418042142012-06-27T21:32:55.966-04:002012-06-27T21:32:55.966-04:00From someone who is a fertile myrtle (2 surprise p...From someone who is a fertile myrtle (2 surprise pregnancies- I lost one at 13 wks this past Feb), I am blessed beyond words with my four beautiful children and one wee one in Heaven. Five pregnancies in just over eight years of marriage is a blessing. While my road of motherhood has not been a smooth one (it has had its ups and downs), I still rejoice in its gift. Thank you for reminding me to be thoughtful of others.
