A letter for him

Dear baby boy.....

We do not know you yet.
Except for in our hearts.
We have never seen you.
We don't know how tall you are.
What makes you cry.
Or what makes you laugh.

But our love for you is growing.
Our fears for you are as real as our fears for your brother & sisters.

Our God is our defender.
And sweet child He loves you more than you can imagine.

I don't know when or where we will find each other.
But know that even though I have no idea what you look like, your name or your back ground that

YOU are chosen. YOU are loved. YOU have purpose.

We love you dearly.
And we can't wait for what God has in store.

- - - - - - - - 
Sometimes it's scary.
Knowing somewhere our child is.
Yet not knowing anything.
Sometimes when God gives our hearts a special mission
It's HARD. 
Hard in the waiting.
Hard in the praying.
But you better believe I pour out my heart for this boy.
And surprisingly enough his parents too.

Some days I have to remind myself that God is in control.
His plans far outweigh mine.
And He has all of us in the palm of His hand.


For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future
~Jeremiah 29:11

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box.  2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!!  Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!

Winter

Winter. It's cold. And in Ohio, so dreary. Lacking of the sun. Or the ability to play outside and feel the warmth on your skin. Days stuck inside. And it all starts to weigh heavy. My spirit goes down the drain. The heaviness on my shoulders & in my heart seems to be slowly crushing me. But I won't stop the struggle. I won't give up & let it eat me alive. The panic attacks that leave me breathless. The numbness. And then the crying. It will all pass. It always passes. But in the middle when the struggle is real I'm thankful for people who speak life into me, God's closeness, being able to receive that warm blanket of His word, hot coffee & making out with my husband, hey, let's get real, making out helps.
