The Lord has blessed me in so many ways. Too many ways to count. A few of those blessings are being married to my best friend and mother to two amazing kids (and an aunt to someone arriving in December). After having extremely hard pregnancies, we were told that we shouldn't have more children. That I should just be thankful for the two that we have and move on. Thankful doesn't start to describe the way I feel about those kids!
I have no doubt that God created me to be a mom. I also believe that God has a purpose for everything. While I was coming to terms with not being able to have more biological children I started to wonder why God didn't want us to have more kids. He, in his infinite wisdom, has shown me that wasn't the case. I will be a mom to kids, who while they were not born to me, they will be mine none the less. And so the journey begins.

Philippians 4:6-7
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Matthew 25:40-46
40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' 41 "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' 44 "They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?" 45 "He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' 46 "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
