"You have to be willing to give up the life you planned to have the life that's waiting for you."
Before I knew this quote, I knew this to be true. My mom could have been the author of this quote. She has had many bumps in her road, yet always manages to come out stronger. I know she never planned on being divorced from my dad, but she knew the time had come. Now her life is the life that was waiting for her.
I always planned on having children easily and when I was ready. I planned on when I wanted them and how I wanted them spaced. Goodbye plan! That is not in the cards for us... we don't have the luxury of taking ovulation kits and getting pregnant in one shot, we don't have the luxury of spacing our kids to our old plan, we don't have the luxury of getting pregnant the "natural" way. But, we do have the luxury of knowing that our marriage can withstand anything and that we will not be broken. I have accepted the life that's waiting for me and I know good things will come.
