I’ve been having a difficult time writing lately. I began this blog to share my struggles with infertility and repeated miscarriages in hopes of helping others and letting other women know they aren’t alone. It was so therapeutic for me and I really felt like God led every post I shared with you all. New…

Shield of Faith
Today seems like one of those days where I just want to fall apart. I want to go in a room, alone, and just cry. Just when everything seems to be going right something goes wrong. For a few weeks we’ve been on a high. The high of finally getting through the first trimester. Finally…
His Perfect Timing
My precious daughter. She is about to turn four in a couple of months and I can’t believe how much she’s grown. How much she’s learned. How different our lives are because of this amazing little creature God blessed me with. She has a kind and caring heart. She’s a much better child than I…
Ready for Battle
Week 10. Test week. Since in the “baby making world” I’m considered old (cringe) for having a baby, there are a multitude of test and procedures that have to be done that didn’t when I had N almost four years ago. I’m only 36. But, having a baby after 35 is considered high risk. And…
Thy Will Be Done
Morning sickness. Week 6 hit me like a ton of bricks. In all 5 of my pregnancies, the sickness has been the worst this go round. But, the past few days, it’s really lightened up a bit. I’ve felt more like myself than I have in a couple weeks and I’ve been able to walk…
How Did Mary Manage Without Ginger Ale????
As week 6 rolls around the nausea has definitely reared it’s ugly head. As with every other pregnancy (4) of mine I knew it was coming with a vengeance. I’m a full time working mother, who’s husband is gone most evenings working since he is in school during the day. When dealing with patients all…
Trust
I’ve been seeing a lot of people on my Instagram (@iamlivinginfreedom) talk about their “word” for 2019. I had never done this before so I thought I’d give it a go. But, what word would I choose? And how do I go about choosing it? Is everyone choosing their word as something they want to…
Let God be the Judge
We live in a world that judges people on a constant basis. People are judged by their appearance, their political party, their sexual orientation, the color of their skin. Whether or not they vaccinate their children or support a brand because of their representative choice. One of the main reasons I no longer get on…
Year of Freedom
Coming into 2018 I was pregnant with what would eventually be my 3rd miscarriage. What a way to start off the new year right? But, I have to say that even though I began the year with another failed pregnancy, I was still hopeful. 2018 was my year for Freedom. Freedom from fears and anxieties…
Jesus Came into this World in a Messy Place for the Messiest of People.
When I think of the night that Christ was born, I seriously get chills. The savior of this world, the Prince of Peace, was born in a stable. He was laid in a manger. A place where animals stay. A place that was messy and dirty. God could have planned for him to be born…
