I am a single woman, a sister, a daughter, a friend. Deep in my heart I have always known I wanted to be a mommy. Even if life has turned out to be different than I expected, you know, the husband, the white picket fence, the van full of babies….It is still beautiful. I am an auntie to three of the most amazing children in the world. I am an ICU nurse who has been blessed with two great jobs, and I am the daughter of my best friend.
The road I am walking is perhaps one of the most complex, beautiful, frustrating, and faith-inspiring journeys I have ever been on. God has planted a dream, a passion in the deepest part of my soul. I will be the mommy of a baby girl I have not yet met. She is out there, or will be. I hold this truth, this certainty close on those days of waiting, of wondering what to do. Follow me on this journey of faith, of discovery. Follow me as I travel down this road. Not the one I had planned for myself but the one God has for me….I am realizing that it is crooked but perfect. And that’s exactly where I want to be…
