Amazed

Today I am just sitting here amazed. With all the ups and downs of the last 5 years, I have some things to celebrate:

My son turned 5 and my husband is still alive. My son gets to have his father not just as an infant and toddler but as a young child who is starting to form memories that will actually be recalled later.

My husband is on a "business trip" for the first time in 4 years that isn't within driving distance and is longer than 2 nights. The fact that he is able to do this, wasn't completely overwhelmed by it, and that his health allowed it is an incredible intervention by God.

I feel hopeful. We've even discussed maybe, maybe, seeing if God has another kid for us. I still feel that that might be too much for us, yet I am seeing how we might be walking into the right season for that to happen within.

Thank you, Heavenly Father, for unexpected blessings that we do not deserve and that you never promised would be ours. You are so kind to us. Amen
