The Path I Travel

Is tranquil & quiet.
Many thoughts fill my mind as I journey along the winding path.

*Hardships of Family*
*Joys of Parenting*
*Challenges of Life*
*Anticipation of What's to Come*
*Tears of Joy & Sorrow*

Have all been felt in my footprints.


My pace has changed as this season of life has evolved.
My legs which once were able to run swiftly, now walk.
My mind looks to the future, sorts through the day & prays for those who desperately want to be walking in pregnant shoes.
I feel incredibly blessed to be given the privilege of carrying another child in my womb.
There was a time I didn't know if I ever would have the opportunity again.
The emotions of infertility still sit raw in my heart.
Much of life is like this path.
There are steep hills to climb, rocks to cross, mud to dredge through; all while journeying through the beauty of God's great design.

I don't know what is around the next corner or up the next hill of my life, but God does.
For that, I am thankful!
